RESCUE BEAR 21

RUNGUS

AGE : 12 Years Old

Name meaning: Rungus is a native race which is the majority population in the northern part of Sabah.
 
History: Arrived at the BSBCC on the 12th of November 2010. She was surrendered by the Victory Mini Zoo Farm in Kudat, North of Sabah. She was brought to our attention following the efforts of Australian Mrs.Reanne Potter and her husband.
 
Personality: She is feminine, very gentle and has a ladylike behaviour. Rungus is always calm and relaxed. She moves with poise and elegance. She will always make time to groom herself and has a manner of sitting with one leg pointed in an angle when she’s grooming. She has a bundle of enthusiasm and spends her days in joyous play with her bear-mates. She enjoys the forest so much! Ah Bui is her friend and one whom she shares a den with. Rungus is also an expert in climbing and sometimes she will build a tree nest to enjoy a snack of young leaves. She often continues picking the tastiest leaves and eating in the same tree for a long time. Her enthusiasm for forest life is a delight to see.
 
Identifying mark or trait: Rungus has a small split on the left side of her tongue.

Adoption: Ann and Paul Blair are adopting Rungus, through the My Bear Adoption Programme.
