The Bear Sanctuary "Domazhyr" in the village of Zhornyska was founded in 2017 on the initiative of the international animal protection organization Four Paws as a rehabilitation center for rescuing brown bears. Bears that have suffered from various forms of cruel treatment are rehabilitated here.
The shelter is located on 20 hectares of forest next to the territory of the Yavorivskyi National Nature Park. About 30 bears are kept here in conditions as close to natural as possible. Each animal has its own personal enclosure with an area of about a thousand square meters with swimming pools, artificial dens and play structures.
Special tourist paths have been built between the enclosures, so everyone can observe how brown bears live in the wild. The exhibition room "Two Worlds" shows the terrible conditions of keeping and exploitation of bears in captivity against the background of contrast - happy animals in their natural environment.
Excursions are held by appointment and with a limited number of visitors on the territory.
