Rescue bears, Mish and Lucy, move to their forever home at Wildwood Escot, Devon
Channel: Wildwood Kent
Date: 09/06/2021

Abandoned by their mother, their condition was rapidly deteriorating, they were at risk from poachers and predators and their rescuers feared for the cubs' lives.

Mish and Lucy needed immediate help, or they would have died. Multiple attempts to reintroduce them in the wild had failed as they were too young to survive alone without their mother. The urgent search to find them a home began, somewhere for them to be happy and to lead a natural life.

The Wildwood Trust were approached in the hope that we might be able to provide the orphans with the second chance they so desperately needed. Of course, we said yes!

After our previous successful rescue and rehabilitation of the brown bears Fluff and Scruff, originally from a Bulgarian canned hunting facility, we know we have the ability to give them their best possible home; where they can not only be safe and loved but can also grow into happy, healthy, adult bears.

This is the final part of their journey from Albania via Wildwood Kent to their forever home at Wildwood Escot in Devon. 

There's still more to do as their main woodland enclosure is being completed. Find out how you can help at https://chuffed.org/project/mish-and-lucy
