We are happy to announce that VolunFlex has successfully adopted one of the sun bears from Bornean SunBear Conservation Center for one year called Betung. Betung was named after the village he was rescued from in April 2020. “Betung is the smallest and skinniest bear cub with a zoological length of 45cm. Upon arrival at the BSBCC, Betung’s weight was 1.4kg. She was in poor condition, underweight, and suffering from being emaciated, malnourished, and has multiple alopecias on her head and body. ”
VolunFlex decided to adopt Betung because we felt that Betung is the sun bear that needed the care the most. She is so skinny, as you can see from the pictures, and we all wish our donation could help her to overcome all the difficulties and be a happy, healthy sun bear later.
Thanks to our VolunFlex members for participating in the adoption program - Anderson, Isabelle, Nao, Momo, Sara and MinSeo.
For anyone who’s interested in adopting any bears, please do so on their website.
