Bear "Kasandra" the first resident of the shelter for brown bears in Badovc
The initiative of the Kosovo Institute for Nature Protection, which started years ago with its aim to remove the brown bears from the “mini-zoos” and accommodate them in a suitable natural habitat, has finally started to give its first results. With the help of the Foundation for Animal Protection “Vier Pfoten”, a shelter for brown bears has been set up in the proximity of lake Badovc. The first resident of the shelter is a bear called Kasandra, which was previously isolated in the buildings of the restaurant “Gjeraqina” near Duhle, Suhareka. With the aid of professional teams from “Vier Pfoten”, KFOR, KINP experts, and Kosovo Police, the bear was transported and placed in the shelter.The opening of the shelter was attended by the Minister of Environment and Spatial Planning, Dardan Gashi; minister of European Integration, Vlora Citaku; commander of KFOR, Volker Halbauer; and Austrian Ambassador in Kosovo, Johann Brieger.more
