Sightseeing
Today, the Dancing Bears Park near the town of Belitsa is an ongoing success story. More than 20 former dancing bears live in a 120.000 m² area under natural conditions which – step by step – help them learn to lead a life as bears. The compound is divided into seven enclosures which enable the expert staff to separate them into friendly groups and thus keep territorial problems raised by such a dense population at bay and stimulate their individual recovery. Almost all bears are hibernating in the winters – something they could not do in their lives as dancing bears, and which is an exceptionally good sign for their progress.
