�Alien-Like� Creature Rescued

Congratuations to SARAWAK FORESTRY for their recent sun bear rescue after months of Search and Rescue operations!

The sun bear is a Totally Protected species under the Wildlife Conservation Act 2010, where a fine of up to RM500,000 and mandatory jail can be imposed for offences surrounding the species.



In a tragic video that went viral months ago, a hairless animal was seen dragging itself through the remnants of a palm plantation in Borneo. That mysterious animal turned out to be an ill and desperately hurt sun bear that was attacked by frightened workers. Now, we have an update.
