Bear Mark is finally home! ❄️
Watch for a true winter miracle! ❄️
Bear Mark lived a sad life as the last restaurant bear in Albania. He was confined to a concrete cage, that was built without plans of Mark ever leaving. 💔 However, our dedicated team gave their all to rescue poor Mark, including cutting the cage open, and bring him to our BEAR SANCTUARY Arbesbach - where he can now, finally, live a species-appropriate life. 🐻
Mark is currently getting used to his new life and carefully exploring his surroundings. 🏞️ After his initial adjustment period, further measures for improving his health condition will be decided.
Thanks to your support he will get to enjoy a beautiful, big enclosure 🌳 with real ground beneath his paws for the rest of his life.
Stay tuned for more updates! If you want to support Mark's future, please consider donating here ➡️ bit.ly/free-mark 💕

Mark looked round at his new home as if he was thinking he'd died and gone to heaven. Credit must be given to the new restaurant owner for doing the right thing. The faces of the Four Paws team radiate goodness, love, humanity - they are beautiful people. Wishing Mark a long and happy life with other rescued bears for companions.💖
That's exactly what I thought, the way he stood almost wide eyed and you could tell he couldn't believe it, qué for me to burst into tears. God bless you all for the wonderful work you do 🙏♥️
It is awful that bear was in cage that has too small door for him to go out 😢
This made me tear up. Thank you for rescuing poor Mark. Glad he's now having a great and happy life. ❤🐻❤
What a beautiful, beautiful bear. The expression of pure astonishment on his face says it all for me.
Oh I love this bear.this is the first time I've seen this.and I'm crying.have a happy and free life you beautiful bear.❤❤❤
Thank you Four Paws for rescuing Mark! 💚
Bless all at Four Paws! And the new restaurant owner who was wise to Mark's suffering. His eyes when he first saw his new home just made me cry. Happy days, Mark!❤❤❤
I just moved North 3 states in New England. I can’t imagine the shock and happiness he will feel exploring his new home!
Heartbreaking to see his former cage and to think of twenty years of misery. Four Paws does remarkable work in caring for animals all over the world. The look on poor Mark's face as he is released is so moving. I hope he has many years ahead of him and that he can have a good life to look forward to. Thank you to everyone concerned.
It's time to receive a Nobel prize.
What sort of person would be attracted to a eat at a restaurant holding a wild animal hostage so cruelly? Despicable!
What sort of people are attracted to zoos? Most zoos aren’t bigger than that cage for bears or polar bears.
@@User12345fanSame sort of people I guess. Never wanted to go to a Zoo myself, or an animal circus.
Haven't been near a zoo for more years than I can remember. The only positive thing that I can think of, regarding the (decent) ones is the fact that many animals who are extinct in the wild, may some day be returned to where they belong. @@lynnebaldwin330
@lynnebaldwin330. Poor and ignorant people, I suppose.
@@lynnebaldwin330 Some Zoos rescue species in danger……
Please keep us updated on Mark's progress. Thank you.
It's so good to see Mark free and able to feel grass & ❄️ beneath his paws. Some of the most emotional parts in this video is seeing him look around before exiting the transport cage and hearing him described as a shy soul. Animals are thinking, feeling beings meant to be free in the wild. They're not meant to be held captive by humans. We would never tolerate that treatment. Thank you to the Four Paws staff for doing this work and for the care, love & respect you continue to give to animals.
Yes, I couldn’t agree more to all you’ve said. His face expressed so much in that moment of release. He was so overwhelmed. I think we can‘t completely comprehend what it means for him to touch natural ground and smell the winter forest after 20 years of horrific captivity and neglect. It‘s good to know that he will be in a beautiful place and well cared for for the rest of his life. So glad there are no more restaurant bears in Albania! I wish you a beautiful day👋🍀🌞
To all at Four Paws, thank you for being the compassionate, empathic, caring people you are and being the voice for those who cannot speak. The world needs more animal lovers.
20 years of pain..Mighty Mark gave us a true lesson on resilience! No excuses ,no mercy for the sick bastards who kept these gorgeous bears captive all these years,Albania need some serious laws against animal cruelty ,twisted humans who let this happening without saying a word..but they forgot not everyone is like them,thank you for saving these glorious bears,they deserve to live free and happy now🙏✨
Mark is now a thankfully a member of 🐾🐾 family❤❤ Beautiful soul he so deserves this❤
Bless you, bless you, bless you for helping him and countless other animals. Please keep us updated! What a magnificent bear.
His face when the door opened and he first saw the woods in front of him.. ❤❤
God, 20 years in the cage... Bless everyone involved in his liberation!
Through You Tube and my love for animals, I found Four-Paws. I will always support their work, always. Bears have a special place in my heart. Especially Brown Bears. For Bear Mark, this must be overwhelming. 20 years in a concrete cage! But no more! Be happy and be a BEAR Mark!
What a fantastic group of people to save Mark from his misery, thanks to four paws he is now Free. Excellent work Four Paws.
To see how sad his face was and then when he stepped out of the cage you look at him ..I swear to God he was smiling ..SO BEAUTIFUL 💗💗💗💗💗💗🙏🙏🙏🙏 THANK YOU
When Mark felt natural ground for the first time in 20 years, and the look on his face was so happy... I am so moved that I can't help but just cry. Four Paws International, the work you do is so incredible and valuable ❤❤❤
Thank you for your kind words! 🐻❤️
Wonderful news! Had to cry at this, his first look at his new home was so emotional, what must he have been thinking? Id love to know. So glad iv donated monthly to u FP, its worth far more than money to see these poor innocent souls finally get a decent life 👏👏👏💝 Please show updates on his new life.
Sobbing tears of sorrow and joy for this beautiful, stunning, majestic Mark. Thank you Four Paws!
I can't even imagine whats involved in these rescues and the transportation, thank you for your love and dedication in saving these animals. Welcome home, Mark, enjoy your new life, you deserve it, they all do 🐻❤🙏.

Well done to sll involved heartbreaking & uplifting thankyou
His eyes.... He is shocked of what he sees... His sight is printed in me..
Mark being welcomed into his new home is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. Vielen Dank, Ihr seit super!
Wow, what a journey to bring Mark home! I don't think I have cried this many tears for any animal rescue such as Mark, and I have seen and support many Four Paws incredible rescues. Watching Mark on day 1 lying on the dirty concrete in that lonely cage imprisoned for 20 years for the sake of human entertainment was aching my heart. His eyes was so gentle and yet sad. By the last day of the journey, the excitement of everyone accomplishment was just thrilling to watch, all I want to look forward was Mark reactions to his new home. The moment he opens his eyes, I can see it shines with wonder, curiosity, hope, freedom and it almost look like tears as well. And when he walks out slowly to the open air and step on the ground in which he has never known, with his head up and his eyes was fill with happiness, that was the ultimate moment I broke into tears of joy. I wish I can see him in person but for now I am happy Mark is free and he is where he belongs. From my heart and soul, thankyou Four Paws rescuers, vet and restaurant owner for your dedication, effort, kindness, and love to give Mark his freedom and home. I have been your supporter and will always stand by for all your incredible work of saving all animals lives. Bless you all.
Best Christmas present seeing Mark in his new home thanks to my lovely son for buying me my present, a donation to four paws to help rescue him and to everyone at four paws for the incredible, tireless work you do, all us animal lovers appreciate it.

Thank you, wonderful Four Paws/Vier Pfoten team!
Thankyou to the new restaurant owner for his humane act. I wept tears of joy to watch Mark relocated into his new home in Austria. It's unbelievable that it's taken 20 years to free this beautiful bear. Great achievement, well done 4-Paws. Mike P 🙂💕👍🐻
I'm so glad you said that it's the previous owner , who is disgusting beyond belief when giving up the restaurant he should have contacted the team not left it to the poor new owner he obviously knew it wasent right him being there it could have been extremely dangerous if he'd got out while there was guests there , plus as albania us proberly slowly opening to tourists lots of European tourists would have been horrified so bravo to new owner doing right thing, though I bet previous owners nowhere to be gound
tears running down my face..thank you from the bottom of heart for what you did🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼endless blessings...many,many years ago i've visited albania and i was shocked when i saw a bear in a tiny trailer next to a food stand and also other wild animals in cages of another restaurant.i will never forget this pictures.i am grateful for all the work you guys did.thank you❣️
Your organization is too awesome!!
Thank you to everyone at Four Paws and welcome to your new home Mark. Most people downsize when they move in older life....no such thing for you sweet Mark....you now have all the room you want and need, and a brilliant team on hand if you need them. Happy New year Mark and may you now have many happy years ahead of you. Bless your sweet heart. 🙏❤👏🇬🇧
