 * This website was about the dancing bears in Bulgaria
 * Bears are taken when. young
 * Their nose or lips are pierced, and a metal ring attached to a chain is used to force the bear to enter instant submission.
 * Because dancing bears are illegal, authorities could simply have taken the three bears away from their owners but the Four Paws Foundation decided to pay for their freedom by giving their owners small grants to set up new businesses. In return, the owners signed declarations pledging never to take up the bear dancing business again.
