The male brown bear came to our sanctuary in October 2020

While still a bear cub and weaned from his mother at a young age, he got to the recreation center. He lived in a small cage near a car parking and the constant presence of visitors of this complex.

Mykhailo was prescribed a special course of treatment and we have a positive result: the wounds have healed, and he can already walk on his cured paw. After undergoing treatment, in January 2021, he went to his first winter hibernation.
