Yes

I’ll sign that.

Amen

Not eight years. 3 times that would be a start

you know nothing of the backstory. maybe the only alternative at the time was killing him. albania is a poor country.

Beautifully written ♡♡♡♡

@@booper343 thank you lovely xx

I totally agree with you. It only takes a little bit of compassion and empathy to know this is wrong. Apparently some people are born without it, otherwise they wouldn't do this to animals.

Yeah it make me feel sick.

Money makes people do terrible things.

I am very thankful for he is Free🤩

Yes, made me cry too when he looked up and around at his new world...

@Jack Beanstalk A graceful trip.

Yep, it was great! So happy for him!

Yes! The look of absolute wonder on his face!

We never saw him get out.....

He was like "what the hell ? So many water I can bath in it ??? I had no idea it existed !"

Barbara Dyson - IMHO they deserve jail time.

There are tens of thousands of people with mental illness who are locked up like this in many countries...we are cruel to our own species also. You could feel his sheer delight on leaping into the pool. I felt happy with him! 😊

@@ahill4642 In hindsight I thought perhaps send them to an experimental lab and save some poor animals Instead.

That is fair and it should be for 2x as long as they kept Rocco in a tiny cage, NO PAROLE.

And people who kill animals should be killed?

I thought the same thing!

Same!

I was writing the same. For sure was smiling like any of us!

Now if we could just do the same for EVERY captive animal!! They weren't put here to fill up spaces in cages, but to be relished and grateful for!

I felt it the same way. He looked around in total disbelief and yet fully enjoying the new experience.

El diablo...I saw that too, it touched me greatly..

That broke my heart ! But i was also a happy moment

He was literally smelling freedom ❣️😂

@@lauraowen8142 thats what I thought he seemed to be sniffing the air.

I cried too!

He needs a girl friend now. Lol. God Bless. I cried too.

Rude Dude Oslo spaps

Me too. Poor bear is happy to finally take a bath. 🥲

he's seemed pretty chuffed to be in his new home. 🐻

That whole area of the world is disgusting. Sometimes they run a thin wire or strong thread through their nostrils and force them stand up and dance to get a few kopecks from the local idiots. No laws against it!

@@Sedona-cl6eg ~ Oh don't. I've never heard about that before. Just another story about the cruelties of humans. I'm ashamed.

Its not that area of the world my friend.the prob!eh its us the human being

@@Sedona-cl6eg Uhhh. Okay. Wanna hear some western stories? How about the Spaniards slowly killing bulls with spears, how is that humane? Hunting with dogs (galagos) and then shooting them when the hunting season is over because they are useless. How about aristocratic Brits hunting and killing foxes because it's a gentleman's sport? Dog racing is a "great" activity as well, perhaps you should read up on what happens to the greyhounds there. How about all those horses slaughtered in Italy because they like horse meat? Wanna see some videos? It's not the region of the world, no. It's hypocritical to say that. It's nice that the Germans are saving bears, too bad they also illegally killed a European bison that strayed too far and crossed their border because they didn't want to bother with catching it. A protected species, miraculously saved from extinction. Every nation on Earth has done some dark deeds so don't divide them into the savages and the civilised.

@@mikshinee87the Middle East where I come from is even worse. Stray dogs injected with poison. Guard dogs have their ears and tails trimmed as puppies and chained in the dark so they’d become feral. I personally saw a dog tied to a tree where a hose constantly spewed water on it. People all over the world are disgusting. 😞

AMEN🙏

Rocco was overwhelmed and so was I. He touched my heart!

Agree with you 👍

My thoughts exactly. Man can be so cruel to other humans and animals. My heart despairs until I watch videos like this 🙏👍

@{soha} The gacha girl LOLOLOLOL

Did you check their facebook page? I don't have any (a)social media ;) but watched their bear stories and Rocco's rescue. You will love it. 🤗

@{soha} The gacha girl everyone is capable of cruelty or inhumanity. It makes you neither clever or ironic pointing it out.

@@LindaEll89 ........Thanks for that!

It's a bigger Cage. But he has grass and can enjoy the sun. And even a swimming pool... I don't think that he would survive in the wilderness anymore. He will have a good life now.

The companies you pay for cheeseburgers and bacon do a lot worse to billions of animals world-wide by the way..

Yeah. He didn't even hesitate, but dove right into that water. Glad he is finally surrounded by freedom and beauty!🐻

Patrick Szostak Germans shoot wild bears. See Braunbär Bruno who got shot by Germans in 2006. 😢

Silver Grizzly what the hell had Rocco done to get 8yrs Poor 🐻 👍🏻

I had the same feeling, especially when he partly gets out and looks around, it's almost as if disbelief, then he realizes it is and at that moment, he was the happiest bear on this planet.

jimb0jam you’re HAF

jimb0jam sure he is not going to like it.

Right...put the prehistoric monster behind bars.

10000000000% agree

The companies you pay for cheeseburgers and bacon do a lot worse to billions of animals world-wide by the way..

I know. I can't imagine robbing him of 8 long years. It doesn't seem to have caused any mental derangement,, thank God. Animals don't deserve the things humans do to them, yet, much like some dogs and cats, they are able to forget. It's sad, he must have been so bored and worse, lonely! I'm hoping he'll be well cared for now for the rest of his life. And they find him a friend.

Mine too

@@marylou931 If I read things correctly, they show his new friend on their Facebook page

One Of The Best Lovely Things To Say In The World Ever. All The Best Of Health And Happiness To You As Well.

I am not physically able to do rescue work. (Old crock) I do however donate monthly to Four Paws International because this is the type of work they do. They have a big cat sanctuary here in South Africa and I saw a video a while back were a lion was rescued with the help of the Born Free Foundation. That is another group one could support to help these abused animals.

The people that kept him in that tiny cage need to spend the rest of their days behind bars.

That was just his quarantine enclosure. When he got his own forest was the heart melting time!

you do it too, if you eat meat or dairy.

exactly... :'(

@@PresentMoment111 No he dont, because its the lifecycle even animals eat some kind of meat. There is a lot of nutrition in meat. That it is nutritious means that it has a high content of nutrients that the body needs, such as protein, iron, vitamin B12, zinc and selenium.

@@lllIIllIIllllII Wrong....just no. Humans have not evolved to eat meat, it gives us cancer, and heart disease. B12 is artificially added to meat, it doesnt actually contain it. We have zero need to eat animals, but omnivores and carnivores do. Therefore, we shouldn't be farming them. It also destroys the planet. Besides, plant foods are waaay more nutrient dense.

Dont worry. Hes not that old. He can likely live into his 30s or 40s

That was wonderful to see. So much more for him to experience there. Really happy for him.

And watching all around the landscape he can explore. His mind was clearly rushing to take that all in. Making the pool his safety zone. Yet his mouth was so active when he pondered his options.

Damn. My eyes have gone watery. What can it be? Go Rocco. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ ✌

OMGOSH I am crying like a baby at that part when I saw the look on his face and just the happiness and joy I could feel, I just started bawling my goodness LOL I'm so happy for that damn bear lol🙂👍

Almost? Know what you mean. So happy to see him enjoying being a bear. Maybe he was wondering if friends and family were around, hoping for mom to be there, or a big bear hug from Dad. Anyway, happy he can be more where he can belong.

Yes! And to see him looking at all the green landscape...where he should have ALWAYS been living. May his life be free and happy from now on!

No, you didn’t literally hear a bear talk. You might have figuratively, but to literally hear a bear speak is impossible. Sorry, I just hate how most people use that word so incorrectly.

@@stephenlott6968 why is this such a big deal. Its figuritive.

@Hammerschlägen M its just figurative. Nothing to make a whole paragraph and explaination about

귀엽다 SpaceTart - I just find that kind of widespread ignorance annoying.

Unfortunately, almost everybody contributes to it.

That's why we keep it out of sight

Luiz Otavio Prates, The quote by Gandhi is, the greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.

@@TheBullyMomma Thanks. Yes, Gandhi. Beautiful

Luiz Otavio Prates, You’re welcome, it is beautiful. I just wish more people would try to live up to it.

@@TheBullyMomma To me, cruelty to animals is unforgivable. Cowardice. Animals depend on us and exactly this fact bring us more responsability. More power, more responsability. Let's fight for these ideas.

God put us here to be good stewards of this planet, and the things on it...We have done a poor, if not failed at th I task. It's great to see that some still have that inner sense, and not just for the paycheck. From a lone person across the big water, thank you to you, and others just like you, and to the individuals who do it on their own. A big thank you, and a big bear hug, a fox hug, a dog hug, a cat hug, oh well, big hugs all around. Thank you.

I'm pretty sure he was smiling!

But...........he is still in a cage better but still a cage

@@ginabrogan4271 He wouldn't survive in the wild.

Yea, I saw that too. It reminds me of when I get a new betta fish(they only live few yrs) taking th poor thing from a fishbowl 4 inches across t a five gallon tank w plants and filtration. They always look around like they can't believe it, just like th bear did.

Yeah, I have a feeling this was a doctored video. You see him in cage. Then you see him roaming in his new enclose. Where is the part he is released? They take the trouble and actually forget to film the part where he actually gets his freedom.

This channel has a lot of clickbait. They title videos to get you to watch till the end. It’s a disgusting way to run any entity

@@tallman4040 : Rocco's release is there to see.

@@strineys.957 are you people watching the video???? at 2;18 he is in the cage.. At 2:19, he is roaming the enclose....there is no footage of him walking out of the cage. NONE> It was edited or doctored. anyone can see that.

@Nilly K give me the minutes and seconds of that part, which is not there, but edited out.

I wish that there was more money to support more laws so the people who did that would be imprisoned! Hopefully they would do more time than that poor defenseless animal.

Humans put him in a cage in the first place. If there were more wonderful humans this would never have happened.

@@francessimmonds5784 unfortunately they'll always be good and bad. Thank God for the good! Yin and yang.

Bootzz28 gvgs3211 absolutely, thank god for the good people. It's just a shame there're not more of them. Wildlife would be infinitely better off without us. We're in the middle of perhaps the biggest mass extinction the planet has known, totally due to humans, nothing else.

But first he had to endure an even smaller cage in the back of a moving vehicle, and I know it was only a couple of days, but can you imagine how terrifying it must have been for those couple of days? Poor thing...but he’s happy now ❤️

I know. I jus cried like a baby, my husband's like wth are u watching 😯

You can almost see him shake his head in disbelief! So happy he has a better space now!!!

Yes, I got Misty eyes, too. Awesome rescue very happy for Rocco the bear.

No, it’s Iowa.

@@powderthumb5959 No, it's in northern Germany (as mentioned and shown in this video), but I think I know what you mean: Iowa and many other large parts of the USA are certainly far more of a paradise than our densely populated Germany.

For sure! Need more footage seeing Rocco enjoying his new life life.

He'll still be in an enclosure though. Sure, better than the cage he was in, but not freedom either.

Roro Mil U right, enclosed but not caged, w/plenty room to roam around + 2b well taken care of. After being caged 8 years, he wouldn’t survive in the wilderness, as he most likely lost ability to hunt and fight other bears.

I agree with you 💯. Your thoughts made cry a good cry . Thank you 😊 💓

Yes! He is so happy 😊

I thought it almost looks like he’s looking back at everyone saying thank you! 💛🤗

Yeah it seemed to me he wanted someone there to enjoy his happiness. He kept looking for someone to play with maybe and thanks to everyone

And that there is such a thing as a 'Bear Ambulance'

To make 💰. That pool was probably his first bath . Blessings to all involved in his rescue from captivity ❣️🕊️✝️

I L O V E your nym.

And love for one another

I think this world is for us to learn, what love can do and what it means to be a real human.

You can help by sign petitions, Care2 and SumOfUs, it really can help. 🤗

@DCD they are very tasy a restaurant sell it near my house

Spend money. This organisation need money to help.

@DCD i mean its just bear people it chikens and turkeys all the time

@DCD But Jesus ate fish

But since we can't turn back time we focus on Rocco living a life that includes a little payback for 8 bad years. Good food, health care, room to stretch the legs & grow old, fat & (hopefully) happy! Hey keepers, how about a girlfriend!? 😀

@@Beezlie727 Bears aren't really pack animals, he'll probably be happier alone.

I know right? Theres been countless studies on segregation, incarceration and solitary confinement. Granted most of it has been with humans but there has been animal testing as well and the results mirror one and other. It always leads to psychological harm and has been considered torture for quite sometime. Sure bears are solitary animals but not entirely and completely by choice. 8 YEARS! Is a ridiculously long time to be locked up. Especially for a bear, thats not an insignificant amount of their lifespan. Whoever is at fault should be locked up for 8 years in kind.

I feel so sad when I see birds in cages too.

@@ivot1761 ikr? Oh whats that, you can fly? Too bad, I like your pretty feathers and song. Heres a lil pole to sit on and a tiny cup of seed in a little container. Have a nice life. Let's hope I don't get bored with you.👿

If the sanctuary can provide some updated video, that would be great!

I think that's exactly what his face says actually ^^ it looks like he had forgotten he could bath

@@pietrojenkins6901 puhlease, they have computers,, tennis courts and yoga classes. Get real.

@@hahna77 and filthy toilets ,no toilet tissue ,no showers .Tis tragic how you're putting leisure activities above basic human needs .Didn't you hear the congressional hearings about the filthy conditions ?

Ugh POLITICS what does imigrants have to do with bears in a small cages BEARS ARE NOT HUMANS Yes ICE is bad and shouldn’t do that *IN MY OPINION*

@@pietrojenkins6901, This isn't the place for that and you should take care of them if you feel that strongly about it.

Erock Stoenescu > how did it end up like that?

Tari Akpodiete They capture them or breed them for tourists usually at restaurants or pubs. They never leave their metal cages. Some have it way worse than this one. There’s also a bunch in Asia as well. So sad

Humans are the worst creatures on the planet we can’t even care for our own species how can we even think about other life?

Winter Bill It’s more difficult than that. These countries have backwards laws and very rarely the “owner” of the bear isn’t just gonna give it up for free it’s how they provide for their families so it’s a tough situation all around. Plus they gotta get all the right paperwork and make sure the beer doesn’t have any diseases. It’s a very difficult scenario unfortunately. Humans suck!

Erock Stoenescu why would anyone want to see a poor sad sick miserable bear in a cage? Where is the joy in that? So heartbreaking when there are so many places in the world where you can see them up close in their natural habitat(well not too close!) of people truly loved these animals they would stop supporting this. It needs to be banned.

I know right😂👌🏽

I was teary eyed over Rocco. Now I'm lol.

Perfect

theres so much room for activities!!!

RangerDanger The Bear Necessities of life 😎

💖

Bless you.

Tears of rage and shame for people that would lock him up; tears of joy for the humanity that rescued him and for his new-found freedom.

Because deep inside you are a spiritual being who can actually feel what the bear is feeling, and that could be overwhelming cause you actually felt it as if you were the bear yourself, the world need more true humans like you.

I'm so happy thay you rescued him..I hope he enjoys every moment..Thank u..I have happy tears for him.🌼

Aww glod bless him he deserve it👑❤

both charged and a slow painful death
