Renew Your Brown Bear Adoption

Brown bears have suffered at the hands of humans over the years in the name of entertainment, being kept in captivity in zoos and used as performing circus attractions and ‘dancing bears’.
Whilst wild population numbers aren’t of immediate concern overall, some sub-populations of brown bear are critically endangered from threats such as habitat loss and hunting according to the IUCN’s Red List.
