LIONS, TIGERS & BEARS NEEDS HELP TO COMPLETE NEW BEAR HABITAT FOR RESCUED CUB "LIBERTY"

 
March 2, 2011 (Alpine) - Lions Tigers & Bears (LTB) has released new photos of construction at the rescue facility’s new Black Bear Habitat, which will be home to "Liberty," the young black bear cub rescued from the Mt. Baldy area last Fourth of July. 
 
 Currently, Liberty remains in the quarantine area, which, at her current weight of 157 pounds, she is quickly outgrowing.  However, without further funds, the construction of Liberty's home may come to a standstill, said LTB founder Bobbi Brink.  LTB still needs to purchase the fencing, the most expensive part of the enclosure, the roof for the bedroom area, as well as provide power to the area.

IT’S A GIRL!

 

August 17, 2010 (Alpine) – Liberty, a yearling black bear brought to Lions Tigers & Bears (LTB) rescue facility in Alpine on July 4th, was examined by veterinarian Dr. Jane Meier and LTB owner Bobbi Brink last week and positively identified as a female.

 

Fish & Game officials brought the bear to LTB in hopes of savings its life.  The animal was causing problems at a Mt. Baldy campground in San Bernadino, where six to 12 young bears are killed each year. But LTB may only be a temporary haven for Liberty, who will soon outgrow her temporary home and require a much larger and secure habitat. Brink urgently seeks donations to construct an expanded enclosure.
