3.Luckily, she was brought to Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Center (BSBCC) where she's been taken care of for the past few months with the goal of reintroducing her to the wild.

5.And she fit RIGHT in. LOOK AT THAT SMILE!
6.She's taken to exploring...
7....and is always on the lookout for snacks!

9....or if she's more into termites.
10.Kala really seems ~at one~ with nature and takes these questions VERY seriously.
11.Making these decisions can be EXHAUSTING.
12.Like REALLY exhausting.
13.Besides very important snack decisions, Kala is also very into climbing...
14....chompin'...
15....and philosophizing about the ~ultimate truths~ of the universe.
