Huge Thanks to Our Amazing Volunteers from @aiglonswitzerland!

From 17 to 19 October, we had the pleasure of hosting 16 wonderful students and 4 dedicated staff from @aiglonswitzerland at the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre (BSBCC)!

Over three fun-filled days, the team brought incredible energy and teamwork as they replaced and repainted the bear platforms, cleaned the bears enclosure, making enrichment and collected coconut husks in the enclosures to make our bears’ home cleaner, brighter, and happier.

Your kindness and hard work truly made a difference for the bears and the team at BSBCC.

Thank you for spending your time with us and spreading so much positivity. We hope to see you all again soon!
