Three-Year-Old Bear Rescued from "Prison"

A team from a bear sanctuary in Western Australia on June 26 rescued a three-year-old bear who suffers from problems with her feet.The team from the Free the Bears Fund shared their journey on Facebook, after successfully saving the bear from her Southeast Asia “prison.” According to the group’s posts, the rescue team had “a tough time getting to this little bear, having crossed rivers and mountain passes with roads washed away, fresh landslides, a hail storm and even waterfalls that have suddenly appeared over the road.”Photos show the shelter’s newest addition being enticed from her poor living conditions into a travel crate with bananas, where the problems with her feet can be seen clearly. Thankfully, she is now on her way to a better life in Australia! Credit: Free the Bears Fund via Storyful
