Renovations: Bear Forest Arbesbach Will Open This Year on May 24

The visitor path is not yet accessible, the animal welfare organization announced on Friday. With a new, northern adjacent forest area of about 10,000 square meters, three additional enclosures as well as associated ponds and caves will be accommodated.

Bear Sanctuary Arbesbach: Bears are currently still sleepy

"We are very pleased that we will soon be able to offer our bears even more quality of life. The completion of the new enclosures is underway, and the expansion of the visitor center is also progressing well," said Eva Rosenberg, Director of Four Paws, in a statement.

According to the animal welfare organization, the current three residents in Arbesbach are "more or less awake" after the winter rest. Brumca and Erich are already roaming through their enclosures, while Mark is still too sleepy to move out of his cave. Soon there will also be a new bear resident in the Waldviertel: Felix will be brought to Arbesbach from Slovenia after a painful life in a small cage.
