Savva and Severina, the bears from Karelia, returned to their native home at the end of September. We chose the release place together with specialists from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Republic of Karelia - the brother and sister were released on the territory of the Tolvoyarvi State Reserve.

Our way to the release place was about a thousand kilometers. The young bears fell good during the trip, although the last few ours already directly through the territory of the Reserve made us a little shaken.

And the bears did not immediately run out after the transport cages were opened. Savva was the first to leave the cage, in few minutes Severina joined him, and the brother and sister disappeared into the forest.
