A Ukrainian bear ‘who brought smiles to refugee children’s faces’ has died after being evacuated from the country to a sanctuary in Romania 😔

The van journey to Libearty Bear Sanctuary involved a team including the group’s founder Lionel De Lange and British journalist Richard Ashmore.

‘At least we rescued her four years ago and she had a decent area with a pool, grass, trees and decent food. We will always miss her.’ Masha had been in a temporary holding facility on a farm in Sambir, where she could roam relatively freely, while waiting for a permanent home. The international Free the Wild charity, which also supported the evacuation, said at the time that Masha had taken her first steps on wild ground in what was intended to be her ‘forever home’.
