RESCUE BEAR 61
JOE
AGE: 1 Year Old
SEX: Male
MEANING OF NAME: Originally known as Fifie. He has been re-named as “Joe” which was given by Joseph Myszkowski, one of the volunteers from the Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA).
HISTORY: A person found the cub alone in the forest when he was three months old. He was rescued from Kg. Kipaku, Tambunan. The person then sent the cub to Lok Kawi Wildlife Park on the 12th of April 2018. The bear arrived at BSBCC on the 22nd of January 2019. He was in a healthy condition and his weight was 22.8 kg during the arrival.
PERSONALITY: Joe is a scared little one and needs adequate persuasion to explore, his love for dog pellets are one of the very few things that gets him out of the dens and into the forest enclosure. Joe is a fickle little one, his constantly changing moods are unpredictable, one second he is brave and careful clawing food from fences and foraging through grass, the next he is weary and alert, scared to get off the ramp but one thing that never changes is his constant need for comfort and attention, suckling on his paws. Although he may be agitated at times, he has a lot of potential to be in the wild, he learns from older bears very quickly and can develop his skills even by himself through thorough thought.
Joe is available for MY BEAR adoption.
