Construction taking place in Lion's Park, named "Land of Pride," for the arrival of bears from Kamchatka.
Tierra del Tigre, a sanctuary dedicated to providing a better life for rescued animals, has kicked off the construction of a new bear house. The project, which aims to accommodate nine rescued bears, including three from Kamchatka, is well underway.
The initial phase of construction involves driving piles for the fencing, followed by constructing the framework. The bear house, approximately 8,000 square meters in size, will provide ample space for the bears to roam and play.
The construction process is being funded through donations, with the organization 'Friends of Tierra del Tigre' spearheading the fundraising efforts. Over seven million rubles have already been collected, with the collection still ongoing.
One of the bears set to call the new enclosure home is Little Tyson, a lion cub who was thrown from the third floor by his latest owner and arrived at the park with severe injuries. Tyson underwent several operations, including the removal of insensitive fingertips on his little paw. Now, he is making progress, standing, walking, and even chewing on wallpaper.
The enclosure will be home to other bears as well, including Potapych, Egleness, and Lubava from Kamchatka. The park does not collect funds for animal food, medical care, or enclosures for animals other than the bear house.
The park's mission is clear: to provide a better life for rescued animals. With the help of caring employees and generous donors, Tierra del Tigre is working tirelessly to make that mission a reality for these nine bears.
A fundraising campaign was started specifically for the bear enclosure's expense. The park has made an initial metal purchase of 5.8 million rubles for the enclosure, leaving additional purchases necessary such as floorboards, walls, and dens; roofing sheets; piles for the foundation; logs for play structures and environmental enrichment; a septic tank and well for lake and cage cleaning; paint; and payment for the work of the machinery and construction crews.
The community has rallied behind the project, offering support and assistance wherever they can. As construction continues, the park looks forward to the day when these rescued bears can call their new home their own.
