Sun Bear Rescue

Later that morning, I met up with Nate, Liz, Kit, and Emily from the slow boat. We negotiated with a minivan driver to take us the 30km to Kuang Si Falls and to a butterfly park in the area.

It took about 30 minutes to get to the falls. Once there, we started walking. The first sight we encountered was a sanctuary for sun bears who had been rescued from bile farming, a disgustingly cruel practice whereby bears are kept in tiny cages and their bile is siphoned out to make Chinese medicines. The bears were really cute, but the exhibits were really sobering.
