Visitors of the Dancing Bears Park in Belitsa will have to buy tickets from now on and the trips will be made only in the presence of a tour guide. Some areas of the park will be closed for visitors. During the summer season the Dancing Bears Park welcomes nearly 300 visitors per day. That is why the places used by the animals for rest remain closed for visitors. All revenues from ticket sales will be used for educational programs directed to a more humane and responsible attitude towards the animals. The Dancing Bears Park was founded in 2000 as a result of the efforts of Four Paws and the foundation of famous French actress Brigitte Bardot. The aim was to rescue all bears used for entertainment of tourists in Bulgaria. In 2007 the last dancing bears from Bulgaria were accommodated in the park and in the following years the park sheltered dancing bears from neighboring Serbia and bears kept illegally by private individuals or in zoos in Bulgaria.
