In 2019, Veronica rescued Archie from a bankrupt safari park. The owner of the reserve intended to release the bear back into the wild, but Veronica was concerned for his well-being and managed to intervene. “You can’t just release an animal like that into the wild?! He has been captive his whole life,” pleaded the young woman.
“He won’t know how to deal with other wildlife. He’ll be in great danger!” She made a decision she believed was right: to adopt the bear. However, there was one major problem – in Russia, it was illegal to keep wild animals, especially a massive, wild bear.
