Bear Who Spent His Life In A Cage Is Thrilled To Play In Snow | The Dodo First Taste Of Freedom
This bear was born in a zoo and sold to a circus. After spending 12 years in captivity he finally found a home in the most beautiful sanctuary. His reaction to his first snow day is the most adorable, heart-bursting thing ever.

When she said he was in that cage for 8 years, my heart broke.
12 years
That god damned cage was WELDED shut,,,, SO MAD when i saw that, those "ppl" need prison...
I think he was in the circus for the first 4 years. The circus didn’t want to let him go, so they welded him into the cage for 8.
@Trish Very very heartbreaking, so many years confined in small space, no compassion, no love, bad food, not clean...horrific. I am so happy that Napa now has Freedom & lives in paradise in Switzerland which he deserves. Humans are the most horrific predators of all---they welded the cage shut. OMG.
Napa is from Russia, not Serbia. There is no zoo in the north of Serbia as shown here.
Napa passed away in november 2020. It‘s so sad to think, that he spent the majority of his life being very very miserable. But at least he was able to spend the last 2.5 years of his life in such a beautiful and appropriate environment. I‘m sure he passed as a happy and free bear. RIP Napa. 💔
Sad for Napa, but it also means that there is room for one more when Trump will be released from his jail cell in 8 years from now, right? I sure hope there will be a camera showing him eat a fruit or a veggie for the first time in his life...
@@Chimel31 what the hell are you talking about?? this is a comment on a bear video.
@@Chimel31 you're seriously messed up in the head. Seek help immediately.
@@Chimel31 - Gee, I dunno. I thought your comment was pretty funny! 🤣
@@Chimel31 Can you just enjoy a heartwarming video without bringing politics into it?
8 years? That crushes my soul for him. No animal should ever be locked away like that. Thank you for rescuing him! I'm in tears!
Thank God you havent been in the Philippines, China and Asia lol
Humans have been locked away for 20,30 years or more when they were innocent!!!!
@@daghetto101 Leuk willen doen!😖😠😡😡😡lammerd!!
Human animals I don't mind being locked in a cage.

People that save animals from terrible conditions like this truly are Angels among us
To everyone involved in making this possible: Rescuers, carers, veterinarians, people who helped create this sanctuary: I humbly bow before thee...

Four Paws is incredible.
I will bow with you my friend. 🤗💖🐾🌈🇨🇦☘️⚜️

Whoever put him in a cage for 8 years should serve that same sentence!
That's a very medieval mindset.
@@Toopa88 I don't even know how to respond to your comment. So here's this; Not only should he serve the same sentence, he should have 6 of his teeth busted out with a hammer before he's welded in there.
Double that.
@@buckcheep he is angry because you paint all asians with the same brush
@@smokescreen2146 What? you're on glue!!. My comment came AFTER his comment. Try thinking that through for a few minutes and what that means. How in the hell did Asians even come into this convo??
Seeing another living being go from imprisoned slavery to being loved and cared for in a beautiful sanctuary, just makes my spirit fly. It's so beautiful and emotional to see his happiness.
I totally concur with you. Seeing him hibernate for the first time in his life was beautiful.
The way he just gathered his courage and burst outside for the first time. I’m bawling. 😭
Whoever put him in that small cage for 8 years needs to be locked up in the same cage for 8 years.
Major blitz - No, they need to be put in a 3’x3’x6’ cage.
8 years they need to be locked up Much longer than that
They even had to CUT HIM OUT to free him.
@@wildwoodandonyx If you process him/her through a proper meat grinder, you don't need such vast space...
They need to be strapped to a chair and gently hit on the head with a hammer over and over again for the rest of their life
Interviewer: "So, tell us, Napa, what is your favorite part about being free?" Napa: "Tomatoes."
Yet humans are not sastified with all mother earth could offer.
@@RayFliesAway Unfortunately, yes. Humans are ravaging the planet out of greed. And if we're not careful, we could end up like the dinosaurs really soon. :(
the bum shuffle on the wall
I mean tomato soup is pretty dang good.
And what, Napa got a job as a gardener?
Thank you so much for giving Napa the life he deserved, for the rest of his life. Rest peacefully Napa. You earned your peace. God bless.
Brings Tears to my Eyes ! Bad People in this World Do Not Deserve to Live Here ! Thanks To All the Good People Who Deserve Everything ! Many Thanks For Saving Napa and All These Bears to Live Normal Lives Happily , Healthy , and Peacefully ! Stay Blessed Everyone ! Bye
circus? Animals don’t exist to entertain people. That’s just so sad.
@D B You cannot even write a three-word sentence correctly so it's probably best not to comment.
D B **You’re **idiot
@D B And you can't write :)
@D B You missed the apostrophe, the period.....and flubbed your spelling. When you attempt to call someone else an idiot, it's important to try to appear like you're not one; not prove to them that they're actually much smarter than you. Too funny.
When porno just isn't enough😂🔫
The guy who put him in that cage for 8 years should be forced to live in it for the same time with no human contact!
No that's not the way. We have to end cruelty not create more through revenge. Those people who are cruel to animals are to be pitied because if you hate animals you hate yourself.
I vote for that, too. See how he feels. 😡😡😖😖😡😡
@@adrianaboga8361 im cringing on the emoji spam
Not "for the same time". FOR THE REST OF HIS SICK LIFE!!!
How do you know what I feel? Actually at one level I do pity them because they are deeply sick and got like that for particular reasons, not because they are evil. Unless the human race can break the cycle of abuse it will continue, those who were abused abuse others. Simply sesponding with Old Testament revengeful justice will not break the cycle and so it will continue Vengeful justice is about satisfying a need in those who carry it out. It is not about trying to rid humanity of its ills.
so hard to stop crying.....8 years in a cage 🐻 never seen sky, grass or nature. Thank you Four Paws and Arosa Bear Sanctuary we need more ppl like you 💕
I am so happy that he got to live his last few years in a place like this, with his bear friends. RIP.
His life was horrifying. Shame on those people.
I hope the evil torturers rot in hell☠️💀☠️💀
You may think it cruel, but in it's day, it was the *_beginning_* of animal conservation. There wasn't T.V. Documentaries back in the day, there were circus'. A circus was the only place MOST people ever got to experience animals like "Lions, and Tigers, and Bears, Oh My!!" In the 1800's when the circus was most popular, people didn't even KNOW these wonderful animals existed. Many were killed for various reasons MORE cruel than training them for the circus. As more people were exposed to them more people became active in trying to protect them. As you see today, the circus is non-existent *BECAUSE* people started to get involved in helping these animals they at one time didn't even know about. It's *_VERY SAD_* that some animals had to suffer through this, but what they endured helped their species survive.
@@mikeh8416 A circus isn't "conservation." It is EXPLOITING animals. Stop trying to paint it in a positive light.
@@timothyhouse1622 By *today's* standard you would be 100% right. However during the 1800's *MOST* people had never seen most of these animals, let alone *heard* of them. During those times people saw, and experienced how wonderful these animals are, and as time went by CONSERVATION GROUPS WERE FORMED. There was *NO* animal conservation groups before this time period.. WHY? Because people didn't KNOW about these animals. Only THEN did people start being concerned with their welfare, and a CIRCUS was great exposure because their treatment in them was *quite often* criticized. I'm not "painting the circus" in a positive light, I'm simply stating that if they'd have never become popular, we wouldn't have the conservation systems we do today. Stop taking everything in a "black and white" point of view. Sometimes bad things happen to MAKE GOOD THINGS happen, because if we never see the bad, we never CREATE the good.
Mile....To paint a rosy picture and make unsupported statements such as that the existence of zoos and circuses enabled or inspured conservation efforts won't make it true....nor would it by painting a rosy picture of the so-called end result of these establishments. His treatment was incredibly cruel and that's it....no justifying. It's much more likely that people became aware of the plight of animals due to increased access to media etc.
Anyone notice that theres no lock on the cage?! They just welded him in that tiny thing!! They had to cut a whole side off to get him free! Disgusting
I know ~.~ the assholes!!!!
If it was a male who kept Napa just so, my question is, who would make babies with one capable of such horror. I shudder to think what other acts of cruelty it has unleashed upon flora and fauna unlucky to be in it's sights. Animal in to good a word to describe....
I wish the abuser could be locked in a cage and forced to live in his own feces for even just one month. Any more time, would probably go insane. Imagine what it did to this poor bear living like that for years.
@@G8GTJav i think thats called a prison 😁
Thelast King a prisoner gets to go outside for at least an hour a day, that’s way worse then a prison.
I don't know how a person could keep a beautiful animal in a small cage. That infuriates me. I am so happy for Napa and I am grateful for his rescuers ❤️🐾❤️
This really makes me cry. Humans are so cruel. Thank you for saving this beautiful animal.
In just few months, People say this lockdown period is the most difficult time of their lives. Imagine being enslaved for 12 years, given shitty food and a shitty place to live.
harman true
Exactly --- I hope people want to now give help to those enslaved animals like Napa , orcas and dolphins are in fish tanks , depressed , going out of their mind !!!
We should sharing to more human, so they have the consciousness about this.
And tortured
I personally have my freedom still. I do not allow dictators to control my life.
"hibernated for the first time" ???? thats like a person sleeping for the first time in life why do we humans do such things? it just breaks my heart!!
Ignorance + greed. Same way politicians work.
Fishslap 33 hey, for real man. That’s true.

I’m at a loss for words 😢! His horrible captivity broke my heart! But to see him free, it’s just beautiful! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️🐻
Thank you to all those who helped Napa🙏
Animals should never be caged for human entertainment. Bless you for freeing the bear.
Yes the same with Sea World, a swinning pool for creatures they swim normally in the world's oceans. It should be closed!!!!
I am 50 50 with that. I think depending on where it is, its fine. Like, animal reserves and such that protect endangered species. Certain high quality zoo's also that do work with protecting the animals and such. Places like seaworld, hell no. They put massive whales in small cages. Thats horrible. I was at a zoo once in Boston. They had a MASSIVE pool with rocks and a bunch of other stuff made for a couple dozen penguins. they had a fuckton of freedom. Thats different than a small pond at seaworld.
i am not a weeb I swear yeah i ONLY invest in zoos that i know are safe for the animals
people should go out to the wild to see animal, not the opposite.
@@sifkn I agree. I went to a zoo once and there was this polar bear. It had a mental problem from being in there for years, so it would literally just walk in circles the whole time we were watching it. It's sanity had probably snapped for having to endure that for such a long time. It's something I'll never forget, and I don't think I'll ever go to a place like that again.
What a happy ending for this poor bear. The people who treated him so badly should spend time in prison.
AND 1) the lawmakers that make this treatment legal, 2) people who accept it and look the other way, and 3) people who support it by paying to go to the circus.
They should lock the door and throw away the key, see how sane they are after 8 years wallowing in their own excrement in constant pain. These horrible bastards probably weren't reprimanded at all.
.... should spend time in hell!
Prison is too good. Make them live inside the bear sanctuary.
The problem is that it is legal in many countries to hold animals like that.
I couldn’t stop crying watching this. First out of sadness for Napa having such a completely tortured existence and then tears of joy for his freedom and new happy life. Thank you so much to everyone who worked so hard to make this possible; you are all very special people♥️😇
I'm so glad he was able to live the rest of his life as he should have...RIP, sweet Napa🌈. My heart hurts so much when I see any wild animal in an environment they don't belong in, and to see them experience freedom for the first time..tears of joy. Thank you for doing what you do. ♥♥♥
He hibernated. This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, he must feel so safe and happy to be able to do that
Yes! That also means that he ate enough and that his body stored enough fat! Which makes it even better!
@@animadea4449 yes and yes 💪🏼🔥
Watched the video, read your comment, crying like an idiot :)
Amazing
Wow breath taking , best thing I've watched , and on good Friday Easter . God bless allbgteat humans at 4 paws awesome work . After watching I will donate to this freedom off poor animals, who habe feeling like us ,and pain , top work xx
People who rescue animals in cruel captivity situations are angels. Thank you.
Marina W doing that would be my dream job
Yes they are..and those positive actions will come back to them in ways they can't even imagine..good things happen to good people :)
How do these angels hide their wings under mortal’s clothes?
AMEN!!!💗💗😍😍
@@java3374 maybe one day, you will live your dream job!💗😍
This is so necessary, thank you, after living tortured thank you everyone
And the fact that Napa was already looking optimistic at the zoo 😢 such a sweetheart
“He can eat tomatoes because he loves... tomatoes.” He’s such a beauty and I’m so glad he’s gotten the help he needs ❤️
Aliyah King “I eat pancakes....... because I love pancakes” 😰😰
Tortuga lmao same
Bear like to eat every time...
Ii was wondering how will eat he has never had to hunt? Im sure they are watching him closely to make sure he is, no?
This is horrible. I appreciate humans who care for wildlife.
and i hate people who do this bad stuff to animals how can this still happen if we are such an evolved species?
I can't do much for my local wildlife directly since I'm in a deep city and can't do much. But I donate what small I can. Go without a few cans of energy drink per month so I can donate the money to a local wildlife charity. It's not much, but I do it.
@@Don-po8vl because, instead of using our being evolved to do incredicble things, we abuse the powers.
Agreed! I think people who think it's ok to keep animals in cages for profit or pets should have the role reversed. They should spend as much time in a cage as they forced the animals to.
ALL things living are our responsibility that is why we have a brain and conscience and the love and respect we give to all our animals comes back tenfold...ask D Attenborough....
To all these animals that are treated so badly and to how sad they are is just heartbreaking….but when they are rescued and released to see how happy they are is just soooo amazing!!!! Thank all of the people who help these bears and every other animal who was treated so poorly to live a much better and longer life!!! You guys are a blessing!!!! 🙏🏽❤️
Thank you to the kind souls who rescued these poor deserving animals. You will be blessed for this.
imagine how never hibernating meant he was so stressed. It would be like not being able to sleep normally for years.
And finally, hibernating, getting a proper night's rest after years and years.
Actually some male brown bears and male polar bears do not hibernate in nature.
@@mheb6370 Well is this one of them?
@@usmh ....Im guessing this bear likely didnt hibernate,but this bear hasnt really been in nature/natural surroundings for bears. Its just a simple fact that not all bears hibernate even when most other bears of the same species do hibernate.
Now he knows what White Privilege feels like in the American workforce.
SEEING THAT CIRCUS SHOT WAS HORRIFYING.
he was so underfed.. :(
And to think people who were there were enjoying it
kitkat corgi yes! I feel so different from the rest of humans bc they are beyond selfish and can’t emphasis for the life of them, they look at non human animals like objects, like a couch or chair to do as they pls. If you ever hear of murders in response to animal abuse it’s me!
Kael Key and the mental abuse being chained with no companion, I never will understand how someone could look at an animal alone in a cage and think that’s normal, like pet birds and such who’s birthright is to fly free in the skies, but no let’s put them in a tiny cage alone for our enjoyment, DISGUSTING INSANITY.
And he was so skinny...
So schön zu sehen, wie glücklich sie ist nach dem was sie alles mitmachen musste❤🙏🍀
Poor babies, so sad what these precious animals have to go through. A big THANK YOU for caring and loving them 🐻
I almost cry of joy when the lady said that Napa had hibernated for the first time in his life.
why?
Wish he had hibernated through the caging
I am crying my ass off. 😭😭😭😭😭
@@Tjukkemarthaa probably too much stress and not enough food so hibernating would mean starving :(
@@RainOCE14 Typically when a human being experiences empathy for another creature's emotion or situation, their brain releases the same chemicals the other creature's emotion would create had they felt it themselves, and results in a similar emotional chemical effect. Typically the emotion of sadness, fear, pain or even anger results in constricted breathing and sinus sensitivity that can turn into crying. So for a human being with empathy, seeing an animal sad or in pain can naturally result in feeling sadness or pain and crying about it. It should at the very least, evoke feelings of one's heart sinking, nausea, or a "lump in the throat", or some kind of felt reaction. If not, you probably aren't familiar with empathy at all, and tbh that's dangerous psychologically speaking and you should probably seek therapy for your dissasociation.
why isn’t anyone talking about how thin he was in the circus...
I literally just said that. It was heartbreaking! 😭💔🐻
@@ezwayocho8296 yae
the must not have been feeding him
Tͭrͬeͤeͤ but he clearly wasn’t fed
The Ringing bros were sued many times by animals welfare acts for not feeding animals. It costs too much. You don't make a profit by feeding the enslaved. He would've been fed the very minimum they could get away with and not good quality. That's why zoo and circus animals have terrible teeth.
Vielen Dank für euern Mut und eure Arbeit 👏👏👏👏🙃😃🙃 💚💚💚
Ohhhh... bears are one of my most favorite creatures. So thrilled that all involved removed him from that hell he was forced to live in, and made it possible for him to thrive and be happy for the 1st time in his life. THANK YOU! 💘🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤
They caged him but they never broke his spirit. God bless you Napa.
So true 🖤
I think the same. He never lost hope. He waited.
Amen.
It is people like the Sanctuary operators that give me HOPE in this world.........
Vegeta did this to him. Poor guy
I damn near cried when I saw him in the circus “performing” like imagine how much beating he must have taken to understand what humans wanted to teach him 😭❤️ so glad he’s in his natural habitat 🙏🏼
True that!👍
I want to go back to my natural habitat.
Imagine this when he was performing that would of been his good time the rest of the time he would of been cramped in a cage. Mongrel bastards. Does my heart good to see Napa now😊😊
it is borderline disturbing seeing the... literally looked like some fucked puppet
@knight flyer So now your animals run around the zoo free?
Thank you to all involved for your help in this rescue. What a BEAUTIFUL place He will have to live out his BEAUTIFUL LIFE! WOW just wonderful. ❤️❤️❤️ True hero's each one of you. Bless your souls.❤️
Thank you! From the bottom of my heart. Napa’s story is heartbreakingly sad and joyously beautiful. I hope he lives a long, long life in the Swiss Sanctuary.
Animals in circuses really upset me, like, an animal’s an animal, not a performer! 😕
Lets cage the circus animals in DC and weld it shut and send the animals who were held in captivity by insensitive morons to DC to cage the swamp
Yes but they just think about the money and fame. The don't give a damn about the happiness of animals. Such an awful world
Danielle Blue I know, it’s so sad 😞
I agree, and it's really no room for it left in the world knowing what we know now. That said not all circuses treated their animals this bad. My mom and dad met while working for one (he put up tents she's did tickets) Don't get me wrong it's still not a way to keep a wild animal but they did try to maintain the animals, they where more treated as pets more than employees.. I still remember they took me backstage to meet Sarah the elephant when I was 3 - 4, she was so gentle, sniffing me, using her trunk to suck my cheeks (felt like a vacuum). They rescued orphan animals they found on the round like foxes.. So all that to say that even though it was still bad compared to today's standards these people did try to do right by the animals and not all circus workers where evil animal haters
The Moscow circus came to my city (Perth, Western Australia) when I found out they were bringing a hippo, with deep, deep cracks all over her back from never being in deep water (hippopotamus literally means 'water horse') I had to explain to my kids why we were not attending, they were fine with it, they KNOW me, mum won't tolerate any cruelty, even to insects, fish...
It's ridiculous that bureaucracy takes so long, leaving animals like Napa in a tiny cage for 8 years after the circus ban. The state should confiscate abused animals and arrange for them to be placed in a sancturary as a matter of urgency, not leave them languishing in appalling conditions. An abusive 'owner' has no rights, in my view.
they have the right to be placed in the same cage as he did with his bears for the same amount of time.
Unfortunately same is true for humans. Thousands locked in for years awaiting trials that never happen.
Maybe I’m being incorrectly judgmental, but I’m guessing Serbia isn’t the most animal-welfare friendly country in the world.
@@peterp2153 neither are the western countries with mass production chicken factories etc
@@Don-po8vl yeah well they shouldnt be so tasty then /s
Napa, a beautiful soul. Thanks to all those who helped him to live a real life of a bear.
Bringing smiles to people is truly noble work. Your videos give me hope. Thank you.
The circus scene literally made me cry. The poor bear must’ve gone through years of abuse
Me too. It literally brought tears to my eyes to think of what they will have done to him to make him behave like that. How could anyone pay to watch that?
It's is just sad to this. If the circus treated him like how a good human will treat his dog it's understandable but this this is just wrong on levels unimaginable
Now the circus are youtube channels, people getting exotic pet and use them to get views..
He looks so fragile :(
When I see him in that cage for 8 years it makes me so ANGRY, I want to take the owners and put them in the cage and tell them I'll be back in 8 years!
But never come back
More than that, humans live longer after all. Fortunately, bears can live up to 50 years in captivity and sanctuaries, so he will have many years to spend as a happy bear. It's insane how zoos are allowed...
@@foottoast4235 yea I agree but not all zoos are bad... There's some amazing zoos that let the animals Rome free and if they come when the visitors come than great! If not nobody is mad...
@@foottoast4235 imo zoos should only be a thing for endangered animals :/ I see no point in keeping an animal unless you're trying to save them from extinction or illegal hunting
The owners wouldn’t be keeping the animals if people weren’t paying to go to the circus
So lovely, how cozy and playful he is. Very happy for him. He is living the right life now.
This teared me up as I watched Napa's fate turn absolutely beautiful... and two other majestic bears to share his life with! Beautiful country... and amazing & compassionate people involved in their rescues. God Bless all of them... 🦋
I like bears. Cannot say the same about humans.
Bears are not our friends.

Guys - I don't know how you managed to get the land for the Bear Sanctuary and raise the money to rescue Napa and the two bears from Albania. I am just in awe of your efforts and how much you all achieved. You have accomplished things that so many of us pray will be done. THANK YOU, SO MUCH, FOR YOUR WORK. Know that you did not just help the bears, you helped achieve what we, in tears, could only pray could be accomplished. God Bless all you do, in your own lives and also with the animals. THANK YOU. xxx
Imagine how much good that money could do... to help some poor children in the world instead. minus the cost of a bullet for the bear,
@@_Everyone__ you know how much money is already being spend on poor children in the world? even if you take the cost of all bear sanctuaries and added to that sum it would only add about .0000001% and it probably will get stolen by corrupt world governments. and if you still think we should just kill the animals and send money to poor children rethink your life, how much money have you sent to poor children? next time you wanna buy a new iphone buy a flip phone instead and send the money to poor children since you all about helping them. go ahaid i dare you.

they sure didn't plan on him ever coming out of the cage looks like they welded his cage shut
fitz fitz I imagine that’s why they had to cut the cage.
Exactly
fitz fitz so awful 😥😥😢😭
That's what they do the captors they weld the doors and throw food through the bars. They have to eat s..t piss and sleep on the bars of the floor. Human murderers are not treated with this level of inhumanity. There would be an outcry. These bears have to live like this for years. Disgusting. That's why these people are so important.

He is a lucky bear!! Many are so traumatised that never recover, but he embraced that wonderful second change from his rescuers.
How can anyone be so cruel to keep an animal in a tiny cage for 8 years. Thank you so much for giving him a better life.
Just incredible how quickly he bounced back from such a long period of horrible abuse!
Most animals live in the moment that's how they bounce back.
We can learn a lot from abused animals, they can really lead by example
@@isqueakzmini yes! I wish human could act as nice & respectful as animals do!!
He is a yugoslavian bear XD
People can too quickly bounced from miserably life, when they turn off PC and go outside from hard worked factories to open wild. :-)
Was that cage welded shut? I can't believe some people can be so sick.
8 years never cleaned? Even not welded shut, the rust and corrosion probably rendered the doors immovable. Better to cut it open than risk tetanus getting cut/stabbed by a cage like that.
Put those people in a welded shut cage. I really hate people that do that.
@Mark Grudt neither would I. I promise I wouldn't lose a wink of sleep over it either.
Paul H meat eaters🤷🏼♀️they eat animals and therefore have no compassion for them.
MissyB 75 just because people eat meat doesn’t mean that they can’t feel love or compassion for animals
THIS MADE MY HEART SO FREAKING HAPPY!! to know that there are humans that care enough to help these animals and give them back a life ...
Makes me cry. Can you imagine freedom. Grass,trees in water,u can stretch,run walk
Keeping him in a cage is cruel, but letting him enjoy the snow day was lovely.
8 years in a cage after ban on circuses? Despicable. His owners should have been put in a little cage. Outrageous.
It would never happened. BUT criminal prosecution for animal abuse AND huge fine AND prison time....THAT is obtainable! Someone should start the proceedings...
@@Nitka022 animal abuse is already a felony
I say put his owner into a shoe box and tug the box at the bottom of a shoe rack for 8**8 years.

This is what never giving up looks like and thank goodness they didn't. My heart is full of joy watching all three finally living like a bear.
I don't think bears usually get fed and taken care of.
This made me cry. Cry because this beautiful animal was caged forever. Cry because he is so safe and loved and he just gets to be a bear. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
The fact that they had to CUT him out of the cage
That was so messed up. Whoever put him in their deserves death
@@Sunrise-fr9jb Nah Whoever put in the cage deserves to be caged rest of live
Utterly heartbreaking.
i would put the cage to good use by putting the people in the cage and locking the door. With or with out the bear is optional.
Just cruelty for the sake of cruelty. Horrible.
“That was the first time he had met another bear” *Audible sobbing*
Or SOL. Sobbing out loud.
Adult bears each have their own territory in nature, that 3 adults could be this close and not have fought is remarkable.
But I was so happy to see him get a bear friend because he looked lonely.
So glad he has a life in a beautiful natural place.
What a beautiful happy ending. A very big compliment to everybody who made this wonderful recovery possible. This big boy can finally be living like a bear, like he deserves. Great stuff. 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Salute to that 30 person team for saving poor animal,
Salute.

Salute!
I've never heard of a polar-brown mix. He's so beautiful.
Grolars They're said to become the norm when climate change pushes polar bears south and Grizzlies north.
Does that make him bi-polar? :D
@@allahspreadshate6486 love the humor🤣🤣
Is that what he is?
Allah SpreadsHate 😂🤣🤣
4:10 is so precious. Like a child discovering the world with wonder and joy.
Thank you for your kindness to many animals from around the world. You are truly heroes!
So sad when an older bear looks at nature with curiosity for the first time.
I know. But better late than never, right?
If only we could save every animal who is suffering like Napa did. 😭
Let's act like we can save them all! 💛
If I had 3 wishes that would be one of them.
@@blackopal8611 good ONE! I'm in!
Where there is will....there are ways.
Sign me up.
What a sweet story! This organization is a godsend! Respect!
Thank everyone involved in saving this beautiful Bear. Finally he can be happy for the remainder of his precious life ! God bless ❤️
8 years, the circus owners are completely evil
Well, they're Serbian...
@@DrDomich true true, lets judge the whole nation based on few dumbfucks. By your logic all germans are same as hitler
Were they executed?
@@DrDomich Theres good and bad everywhere
@@Mico605 Well, aren't they all f.ckin nazis??
I cried like a baby when they said he was in a cage for 8 years.
Me too. Makes me ashamed to be a human.
What about humans n prison for twenty years
@@annedonnellan6876 that's because they commit crimes so heinous that they deserve 20 years of their freedom stripped. besides you cant compare humans and animals. humans have a much higher intelligence that they are aware they have committed a crime and are being punished for it. that is very different to an innocent animal who is forced to spend a life in captivity. honestly, its common sense. playing devil's advocate here makes you look stupid
@@aminahussain8690 I agree. What a comparison?!
Me to and I watched this at work.
It’s amazing that Napa ended up in such a beautiful forever home, but so heartbreaking that he was in captivity for many years.
So happy this beautiful and majestic boy is now free and living a great life! Thanks to these caring and loving people!
Poor bear, but glad his life got changed around
12 years? what would you do to people if u got released from a cage after that long time, i know i would kick their ass properly. humans using animals for an entertaintment in circus and getting money for it runing this bears life? fucking scumbags
@@vonum7530 yea
Trust me, for one bad person there is one hundred good person .
@@denisemartel3352 that is true
I hope he doesn’t remember his past.
That would be wonderful!!
Animals never forget, but they are unconditional and very forgiving. I don't know about god is love like people say that he/she is, but I know the animals are LOVE for sure.
@Prodigy, what does God have to do with this?
Animals do remember but choose to live in the moment because their survival relies on them living in the moment. If humans were still a hunter-gatherer society, we would also be living in the moment as we would have no other choice.
Animals don't forget aspects of what happened to them they just don't hold it in their hearts, animals only life in the now. The past and future aren't concepts they are concerned with. He has Good NOW, that's all he cares about. ♥️
I pray all the animals who are in these conditions will be free like Napa
And….I cried. What a beautiful story and well done to everyone who was involved in freeing these beautiful creatures from cages
I am so sad this beautiful bear died. The fact he suffered most of his life is maddening. But nearing the end, he was take to a paradise where he could truly be a bear and enjoy his short life. Thank you so much for rescuing him and sharing his story with us who love animals.
he died?
I'm actually crying
Before he died i did see him at arosa on a school trip he was separated from the other bears because of his health we called him the: de Bär mit de Gummi Schär. translated: the bear with the rubber scissors. Really cool thing that i stumbled on this video and your comment knowing it was a 1 Time thing in my life seeing him.
@@itsyaboyskinnnypimp42069 How awesome!
How do you know he died
The person that put him in a cage derserves a cage. It is so sad to see how he was treated. That cage was barely big enoough to turn around. Im happy he was rescued
How sad that he suffered in that cage for 8 long years 😭
They deserve more than a cage 😡
niser welcome to the world of any animal raised for meat or dairy...
Rapists have it better in prison 🙁
@@lovesanimalshatesrats6339 i dont eat anything that had a heartbeat. I try to put myself in their place and i dont want to be eaten. Even if an animal is going to be eaten, he deserves to be treated respectfully until they murder it. The animal should never know what happened.
Thank you for rescuing this wonderful bear!! ❤
Thank you beautiful people for your love & care 🇦🇺♥️♥️♥️
Incredible that poor Napa survived & without going insane. He's beautiful. Thanks to all who rescued him & never gave up or forgot about him. He looks so happy now. Thank you all.
Unfortunately they had to put him to sleep last year. At least he had a good time at the end of his life.
Imagine suffering all that and still being so brave, curious and trusting. Humans can be both terrible and beautiful. Thank god for those that rescue them.
Seriously... such a strong sweet spirit.
Thank the humans who helped him.
But on the whole, human beings are absolutely disgusting. They are the cockroaches of the Earth.
@@SteveKasian Indeed,and they will soon get what's coming to them...
@@geoffbell166 Well I just hope that's it's a massive meteor that, with plenty of warning so I can go to a mountain top near ground 0 and witness it, parts the sky, creating an atmospheric effect totally alien to everyone, and finally impacts and obliterates everything. It would be the most incredible, beautiful way to go I can think of. Just to be alive to witness it, even though you'd be snuffed out in an instant moments later, would be totally worth it. But anyway, it doesn't sound like you've got that in mind. Are you a serial killer or sup'm?
Thank you to the beautiful people who enabled this poor bear to enjoy his final years the way he deserved to. You are heroes and the work you do is so important and so wonderful. May you all be blessed in life for helping these animals.
There's no words to thank you enough. THANK YOU for saving this poor soul ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Napa just died a week ago due to a drastic health decline because he got Epilsepsy. So happy that he could enjoy some happy last years after all he's been through!
That is very sad
oh nooo rip Napa
@seee3XThank you for posting. It's sad 😥but at least Napa enjoyed his final years free and not in captivity.
😭😭😭😭😭😭
RIP darling Napa, you are TRULY free now xxxxxxx
