© Licensed to London News Pictures; Bristol, UK; 19/04/2022; Bristol’s Bears rugby team come face to face with their namesakes, four brown bears at Bear Wood at Wild Place Project. The team players viewed the bears through thick glass windows in the viewing room as the bears licked peanut butter placed on the windows. Players also met fans and signed autographs. Bear Wood is also home to wolves, lynxes and wolverines with 8 acres of woodland to roam in, with walkways for the public to view them. Wild Place Project invites visitors to take a glimpse into eco-systems from around the world, including those found in Madagascar, Cameroon, the Congo, as well as British ancient woodlands. Animals include giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, gelada ‘baboons’, lemurs, meerkats, red-river hogs, elands and more. The award-winning attraction is owned and managed by Bristol Zoological Society, a conservation and education charity that runs conservation projects in four continents.
