USA: ‘Yellowstone Bear World’ Investigation Reveals Traumatized Cubs Desperate for Their Mothers in Public Feeding “Encounters”, and Pain Medication Denied to a Cub With a Fractured Leg. Video and Action Link.

A bear named Bean (shown) fractured his leg, but a supervisor told workers to withhold his prescription pain medication.

From Peta;

A breaking PETA undercover investigation into Yellowstone Bear World, a bear-breeding operation in Rexburg, Idaho, found that workers used traumatized cubs desperate for their mothers in public feeding “encounters,” threatened to beat bears with a stick, denied pain medication to a cub with a fractured leg, and more.

Seeking comfort, this cub tried to suckle while being held in an unnatural position and forced to endure touching and handling by a crowd of visitors at an event at Yellowstone Bear World. (Photo taken by a member of the public in April 2022).

Frantic cubs—who, according to guidelines from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, are too big, too fast, and too strong to be handled by the public—routinely bit, scratched, and bruised workers. PETA’s investigator witnessed a supervisor lash out when a cub named Tootsie bit her, threatening to “throw” Tootsie across the room and rip out her teeth “one by one.”

After they become too large to use in profit-driven public encounters, cubs are moved to a drive-through enclosure. There, visitors in tour trucks toss them bread, which is not good for them in excess. They often have nothing to do but beg for food and pace back and forth, a sign of psychological distress.

When the bears are no longer used for public “encounters,” they are confined to a drive-through enclosure where they have nothing to do but beg for scraps of unhealthy bread visitors toss to them from tour trucks.

Help end this exploitation now.

Please ask Yellowstone Bear World to stop tearing families apart and end its cruel breeding operation and stressful public “encounters” now.

Take action for the bears now:

  1. Why are these people even breeding bears? Leave them alone in the wild and they will do just fine.
    Every time humans get involved they F everything up.
    LEAVE THE WILDLIFE ALONE!!!
