Rescued moon bears arrive at Jimmy’s Farm & Wildlife Park

The rescued bears – Bara, Rumi, Saebit, Yonggi and Huimang – are enjoying a new reserve at the park created specifically for them.

It includes space for them to climb, swim and rest among trees and grass.

The park launched a campaign to fund the rescue and has raised more than £90,000 out of a target of £200,000.

South Korea banned the breeding and possession of the bears last year, along with the extraction of bile from their gallbladders.

The bile was used in medicines while the bears themselves were often kept in poor conditions.
