Six rescued Asian black bears just arrived safely in Denmark.
My whole heart lit up.
I love animals, and this makes me proud of my country.
We saw them on TV, and they looked so happy to be here.

Six Asian black bears have been flown from South Korea to Knuthenborg Safaripark in Denmark, the first rescued bile-farm bears to be relocated to Europe. The bears had spent years in captivity having their bile repeatedly drained for use in traditional Asian medicine.
After spending the past few months at a rescue centre, where they were rehabilitated and prepared for a life free from exploitation, the bears were transferred to the Danish safari park. They will be monitored and cared for individually over the coming weeks before being released onto the park's extensive grounds
This rescue operation was the result of years of collaboration between several international organisations whose mission was to give the bears a second chance and allow them to simply be bears.
