Vela
Sex: female
Born: 1989
In the DANCING BEARS PARK Belista since: September 2005

Because of this, she is also bigger and heavier than the other female bears in the park. Luckily she accommodated very quickly to new surroundings of the DANCING BEARS PARK Belista and she is even starting with her preparations for hibernation.
