Boris - Asociația Milioane de Prieteni

Boris was one of the last bears from the enclosed zoo in Onesti, a small town from Romania. His long and powerful claws disappeared while walking on the hard concrete floor of the cell, and his broken teeth have lost the battle with the iron bars, chewed during these years of frustration.

Originally he and Kodiak lived in Radauti Zoo, northern Romania, but they came to Onesti zoo in 2002 to satisfy the curiosity of the children here. According to the manager of the zoo the bears were about 17 years old, but no one knows their exact age. The Rădăuţi Zoo had no medical records of them, so their age was determined approximately.

Adopt Boris with a minimum donation of 5 euros / month (60 euros / year). With this contribution, we can ensure that the adopted bear has a honey jar every month. When you finish the donation for a year, we will send you an adoption certificate.

We appreciate if you can support a greater part of the need for the bear’s care. If you represent a company, you can adopt a bear exclusively with a donation of 600 euro / month. The company's logo, accompanied by the name of the adopted bear, will be placed in the sanctuary. Over 30,000 visitors will see that the company you represent is involved in animal welfare.

You can also donate by bank transfer i. Once you have completed the donation, please send us a message with the name of the adopted bear, the adopter's name and the bank transfer date, to milioanedeprieteni@gmail.com.
