MEET THE BEARS OF CHAPARRI AZULINA
One of the new bears to arrive in Chaparri is a very young female (approximately 1 year old), named Azulina. She was rescued from being kept as a pet by a family in Tarapoto (north Peru), in the buffer zone of the Cordillera Azul National Park. The NGO CIMA who works in the area brought her to Chaparri. She has been recently placed in the same enclosure with Cholita, who has seemingly “adopted” her, and as a result she is adapting to her new surroundings very rapidly.
CIMA and the Cordillera Azul National Park - which helped us in the transfer of Azulina -organized a visit to Chaparri by the people who had the bear and some local teachers; it is hoped that this will help promote bear conservation in the Cordillera Azul area. |
