It is the second rarest bear species, after the giant panda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their name comes from the pale horseshoe shape on their chests, which is said to resemble the setting or rising sun. No two markings are the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They have a very long tongue at 20 \u2013 25cm. This helps them extract honey from bee hives, earning them the alternative name \u2018honey bear\u2019 or \u2018beruang madu\u2019 in Malay and Indonesian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sun bears live in tropical lowland forests and are the only bear in South-East Asia. They are mainly diurnal and do not hibernate but build nests in trees to sleep in. They are omnivores and primarily eat invertebrates, fruit and honey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Threats to Sun Bears<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The total sun bear population has declined by at least 30% in the last 30 years contributing to sun bears being classified as \u2018vulnerable\u2019 in 2007 meaning they are at high risk of extinction in the wild (IUCN 2007). Sun bears face three main threats:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Habitat loss&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;Like many species, deforestation and degradation of habitat has dramatically decreased their numbers. The main causes in Borneo are plantation development, unsustainable or illegal logging and human-caused fires. In Sumatra and Borneo, large-scale conversion of forest to oil palm or other cash crops is proceeding at a rate of 1,000s of km\u00b2 per year (Holmes 2002).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Commercial hunting&nbsp;\u2013 Sun bears are primarily hunted for their gall bladders (for use in Chinese folk medicine) and bear paws (as an expensive delicacy). In China and Vietnam, bile is milked from bears while they are still alive. Bears are routinely restocked as they do not live long.&nbsp;Killing sun bears is illegal in all of their native counties but is largely uncontrolled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pet trade&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;Sun bears are the smallest bear in the world. As such, their cubs are considered incredibly cute and there is a high demand for them as pets. The mother is killed and the orphaned cub is removed from the wild and commonly kept in small cages with inadequate care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Image: Betung and Kipaku in the forest doing what bears do<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hubble-live-assets.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/eae\/image_asset\/file\/558\/content_Betung_4.JPG\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Images: all images courtesy of Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2021, as part of our 21 for 21 campaign which supported 21 small specific projects all around the world, we donated \u00a35,000 GBP to BSBCC to support its&nbsp;sun bear rescue and rehabilitation facility in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo.
