    BEAR CUB SAVED BY WWF-ARMENIA SETTLES IN SHIKAHOGH RESERVE

    The bear cub saved by WWF - Armenia settles in the Shikahogh reserve.

    The bear cub was found in 2012. The WWF Armenian Office with the
    support of its German colleagues built a temporary shelter for
    the animal and hired a vet. Nursing the bear cub for 8 months, the
    specialists let it free in July 2013 attaching a radio neck collar
    to its neck.

    Talking to ArmInfo, Head of WWF- Armenia Karen Manvelyan said the
    bear cub called Masha spent the autumn in the Shikahogh reserve and
    hibernated in December. In March-April, environmentalists will be
    tracking the bear throughout the reserve.

    Earlier Manvelyan said that the data received from the radio neck
    collar could be used in a research.
