On their stop at BSBCC for the 29th Environmental Education Race (EERace), Group T began with a fun and engaging pre-assignment: mimicking sun bear behaviours. Each participant had to perform the actions accurately while others guessed which natural behaviour of sun bears they were demonstrating.
Following the activity, Dr. Wong Siew Te delivered an
inspiring talk, sharing his journey from the beginning and how BSBCC was
established, with a strong focus on animal welfare and rehabilitation.
Next, the participants took part in a sun bear
enrichment-making activity, creatively designing enrichment items to stimulate
natural behaviours. They then headed to the observation platform, where they
learned more about BSBCC’s roles in education, research, and eco-tourism. Here,
they conducted simple bear observations and interviewed tourists to gain
insights into eco-tourism perspectives.
Upon successfully completing all tasks, the group was
rewarded with a goodies bag. We hope Team T left with a deeper understanding
and appreciation of BSBCC’s vital role in protecting and conserving the sun
bear. Good luck, Team T, and thank you for your enthusiasm!
