SK Nunuyan Laut Visit (2025-01-09)

 We welcomed a group of primary school students from SK Nunuyan Laut, Sandakan. The group consist of 17 students and 4 teachers were brought to a guided tour in our Centre. Several important topics where shared such as the reason of the Centre establishment, why the bears are here, why their number in the wild declined and what we are trying to do to make it better for the bears that we rescued. These topics discussed with the hope of instilling empathy and love to our bears and of course the wildlife in general so there will be a better future for our wildlife and nature.

Transporting Pitang the sun bear cub from BSBCC to Tabin Wildlife Reserve

A big day today! We are transporting Pitang the sun bear cub from Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre to Tabin Wildlife Reserve for the soft release program and rehabilitation. Wish us luck!







We arrived at Lahad Datu for a quick stop. Then will continue our journey to Tabin Wildlife Reserve.



The journey continues from Lahad Datu to Tabin Wildlife Reserve. While driving, let me tell you more about the Tabin Sun Bear Project. Finally, I would like to thank all of our funders to make our project possible to help sun bears! Thank you @yayasansimedarbyofficial @yayasan_hasanah @paradisewildlifepark @hertfordshirezoo @planetwild.official @mpogcfofficial and many more for your generosity!







This was what Pitang the sun bear did in her 4 hours of journey from Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre to Tabin Wildlife Reserve: play, eat, sleep, and ๐Ÿ’ฉ too!







Pitang the sun bear finally arrived her new home and settled down. We hope she can get use to the new environment soon!











At Camp Tenom, Pitang is settling down quick and start feeding, drinking and exploring her new home. She even make a nest to have a nap. Tenom seems a bit nervous to have a new neighbour. Hopefully both of them will get along well and become good friends so that we can walk them together in the forest!





Yesterday transfer of Pitang from @bsbcc to Tabin Wildlife Reserve is a great success. Thank you to my team at @bsbcc, Sabah Wildlife Department, Sabah Forestry Department, @yayasansimedarbyofficial @harihasanah @mpogcfofficial @hertfordshirezoo @planetwild.official and many more to make our project possible. Hope the two rescued sun bears can grow healthy and well here !








A good team is essential to accomplish great works. I am lucky to have a dedicated team to help me to achieve many difficult tasks over the past 17 years! Thank you for your hard work, your precious time and selfless sacrifice for the sun bears!
