Agra Bear Rescue Facility, Wildlife conservation area in Sur Sarovar Bird Sanctuary, India
The Agra Bear Rescue Facility spans across forested enclosures with ponds and trees, providing rehabilitation spaces for rescued sloth bears within Sur Sarovar Bird Sanctuary.
Wildlife SOS established this sanctuary in 1999 in partnership with Uttar Pradesh Forest Department to end the centuries-old practice of dancing bears in India.
The facility creates employment opportunities for members of the Kalandar community, transforming their traditional bear handling practices into sustainable conservation work.
Visitors can observe rehabilitated sloth bears in their enclosures through guided tours, with entry fees supporting the Forest Department's conservation efforts.
The medical center contains specialized equipment including X-ray machines, dental suites, and operation theaters dedicated to treating rescued bears during their 90-day quarantine period.
