Steps towards rehabilitation

When a bear arrives
All bears that arrive at the centre are given a thorough health check by our vets. Individual characteristics are recorded.

Quarantine
To prevent risk of disease to other bears, a new arrival will be kept separately for the 30 days until test results are known.

Making introductions
Wild sun bears are mainly solitary, but to encourage the positive development of the bear behaviour we introduce them to each other (with the same age). This is done slowly and groups are monitored.

Bear behaviour
Our staff and volunteers work to encourage typical bear behaviour that equips bears for forest life. This includes activities such as  tree climbing, nest building, and foraging.

Enrichment
To encourage bear-like behaviour and increase well-being, enrichments are used. This can involve food types, structures, smells and other activities.

Providing a home
We aim to provide a humane comfortable, and stimulating environment for captive sun bears over both the short- and long-term. Sadly, some bears are too traumatised to be released into the wild. For these bears  BSBCC provides a permanent home.

Release
We identify potential release candidates for re-entry into the wild. We work hard to encourage their independence and monitor their progress for this pivotal moment in their lives.


Sun bear health check by vets
Vets check the health of each sun bear.
sun bears foraging
Sun bear learn their defence skills from "play-fight" that need to develop in the wild.
sun bear enrichment
We constantly develop enrichment activities to improve welfare and skills.
sun bear nest
We provide space for sun bears to act on their natural instincts, such as nest building.
