If you are inclined to donate your money to good causes, this is one
worth looking into. We are recent graduates from the University of
Florida's Wildlife Ecology and Conservation program and are hoping to
spend the summer in Borneo to help return orphaned sun bears to the
wild. Management for Malayan sun bears is difficult given their severely
understudied status and urgent due to the habitat destruction taking
place at an alarming rate on the island of Borneo.
We have been selected by an overseas conservation organization as the
new sun bear rehabilitation volunteers to participate in the care and
reintroduction of a young bear named Bernie who is currently being
rehabilitated in Indonesia. In addition, we will care for 3 additional
sun bears in the beginning stages of their rehabilitation processes.This
is Bernie's last chance for a wild life! Bernie has been undergoing the
rehabilitation process for over a year now and is very close to being
successfully reintroduced into her natural habitat in the rain forests
of Borneo! Bernie's progress is an amazing accomplishment because over
95% of Malayan sun bear rehabilitations end in failure. Please help us
to help Bernie make it over her final hurdle.
Feel free to write with questions.
Thank you.
