Ricky the Bear Rescue video

[Triana]

Published on Feb 11, 2015
Watch Ricky's rescue story! Ricky is settling in at the sanctuary, and will soon have access to a large habitat to roam and play. She'll even get to meet other bears! We would like to give a big thanks to BakerHostetler and everyone who contributed to this lawsuit to free Ricky. Thanks also to the rescue team, and the great people at The Wild Animal Sanctuary for providing her such a great new home.

5. Yorker for Ricki!

As a resident of the same PA county, York, in Ricki's old home, let me say that me, and many of my neighbors, are very happy that she is now a resident of CO!

6. Welcome to DU Joe! I live in York County too.

Just moved here 12 years ago. I moved from Maryland, and thought I was moving North. After I got here,
I realized I had not only moved 'south', DEEP south, I had also gone back in time to 1863.

But honestly, my vote is needed here more, and I had a great time working the Kerry and Obama campaigns.
Wish I could still do that campaign work today. But I did permanently convert a lot of people to Democrats
AND got them all volunteering. Best experience of my life.

7. Ha! Now I see you've been here awhile, just not posting.

I joined DU in 2003 after the local Republican Party kept calling me to try to recruit me, and the boobs wouldn't take no for an answer.
I told them I'm a lifelong solid blue Maryland Dem. They asked me what hours can I come in...............

I said I hate GW, and told them why. They said what hours can you come in..........

9. Hi DebJ

Sorry I'm just getting back to you. You are right, I have not posted much. I did all that when I moved up here (Shrewsbury) 20 years ago. The GOP'ers up here are really batty. I met Scott Wagner when I was working the polls last election. He was polite enough to introduce himself, but you could see he was so full of himself he was ready to pop!

10. Yep Wagner needs to gooooo....

We live in West Manchester, just outside of York.

8. Thank you for updated us on this story. I wonder if holding people in cages

could also meet with the same fate?

11. That was great, Triana...

I wish I had enough money to give to everyone… It's hard to make a choice, and I know ALDF has come calling to us before for money.

I'll chose them next time we have our opportunity to give.
