Since 1996, the Center for rehabilitation of orphaned bear cubs IFAW, located in the village of Bubonitsy (Tver region), raised and released into the wild 120 bears. The center works on the author's technique, developed by Valentin Sergeyevich Pazhetnovym. Methods VS Pazhetnova unique and allows you to release the animals into the wild is almost completely adapted to an independent life, is not accustomed to the man and saw him as a threat to what is normal for animals born in the wild and grown up with parents.
Bears IFAW Center fall into a variety of ways - mother killed the hunters, and the kids were left; it happens that scares bear something and she leaves the den, throwing posterity. So, in mid-January at the Center went to Kostroma region, to pick up where the three cubs, which scared my mother loggers.
By cubs unauthorized entry is prohibited, only 3 people come to them for feeding son V.S.Pazhetnova Sergei and his two assistants. The use of any kind whatsoever aromatic agents (perfume, a little cream) before working with the bears to people smoking, are not allowed here and talk - kids do not have to get used to the human voice, the smell. Going for a walk with cubs, Sergei takes a twig and snap it on the nose with those who are trying to make contact with him - bear to be afraid of people and do not trust them, because he has more chance of staying alive
Very young cubs eat every three hours, a fixed feeding time is not - when they start to crawl and grumbling, they are fed. This is due to the fact that in the den mother is not constantly secrete milk, and only when the bears begin to irritate the nipple-bear.
Grown cubs moved from home to the hut, which is located in the middle of the enclosure the size of one hectare. In it, they are a few days to get used to a new place. Then open the door of the hut and the kids start to walk freely in the aviary, explore life in the forest, new smells, the sounds. Here they learn to produce their own food.
Since moving to the enclosure bears were fed three times a day a special porridge on milk with the addition of raw egg and vitamins. Once in the forest there are plants, bears gradually shifted to one meal a day, so they can find themselves food in the forest, they have it turns out perfectly. Many believe that if the bears belong to the order of prey, then eat mainly meat, but in dividing the basis of their diet is plant food (love the berries: blueberries, raspberries, mountain ash), and animal protein they get by eating the larvae of ants and other insects, and if caught, small animals like mice.
A couple of months aviary open and bears will leave the territory of the reserve for 2-3 km. During the months spent in the Centre bears matured, learned how to earn their own food and have not lost the natural instinct for all animals fear man, to enable them to survive in the future, because very soon they will be released into the forest. Where they will hunt adult uncle with the big guns. But we'll talk about next time.
