10.01.2022 A study published last year has shown that Sun Bears, in a captive environment, will mimic each others facial expressions to initiate play. . This is a behaviour only seen in primates, meerkats and recently between doggos and horses. . Its amazing that we are still discovering so much about the natural world around us. ...

10.01.2022 Whilst its a beautiful day, on #internationalsunbearday it is so important to remember why so many organisations are working to save this unique species. . Whilst there isnt a reliable source of current Sun Bear populations, there is a wide consensus that there has been a 30% decline since the 90s. . ... . #internationalsunbearday #sunbearconservation #SSBT #wildlifeconservation #wildlife #bear #donatetohelp #Indonesia #wildlifecharity See more

09.01.2022 Due to a rough start to life, very very few of these beautiful bears we see get released back into the wild. Ponder that for a moment. All the sun bears you have seen on social media are still in specialised care, requiring love and attention Thats why its important to support specialised organisations. Buy merch, donate your time or money.... . Even if Sun Bears arent native to your country, when you act locally you impact globally. . . #internationalsunbearday #sunbearconservation #SSBT #wildlifeconservation #wildlife #bear #donatetohelp #Indonesia #wildlifecharity See more

We, the SSBT, will be working closely with Ucoks foster parents from the Indonesian Species Conservation Program - ISCP and the BKSDA. . Whilst life is more difficult during this COVID-19 period and going to be difficult times for everyone but we will continue to talk about Ucoks welfare and his future.... . . #sunbear #sunbearconservation #SSBT #wildlifeconservation #wildlife #teeth #scent #log #enrichment #ISCP See more

04.01.2022 Some international Sun bears Sisters Dara and Lailani, seen here enjoying the sun were born in Tierpark, Berlin but now spend their days at Bassin DArcachon Zoo, France. . Zoo born individuals like these sisters are vital to raise awareness for Sun bears... . Zoo environments also allow us to learn more about a species that in a lot of ways is still very mysterious .

03.01.2022 . In these wild times, an interesting recommendation has come from the Chinese government promoting the use of Tan Re Qing, an injection that contains bile that are farmed from bears such as Sun Bears, to treat COVID- 19. . It is a shame that in 2020, where the ursodeoxycholic acid, the key ingredient in bear bile, can be synthetically produced, governments are supporting the mistreatment of animals. .... . #sunbear #sunbearconservation #SSBT #wildlifeconservation #wildlife #stopwildlifetrafficking #donatetohelp #wildlifecharity #stopbearbilefarming
