Workers at a bear sanctuary in Kosovo have come up with creative ways to keep their twenty brown bears cool as temperatures near 40 Celsius (104 Fahrenheit) this week.
The bears' pools are regularly topped up with fresh water and their keepers hurl fruit and vegetables into the water to encourage the animals to swim. They also place frozen fruit and vegetables they dub "ice creams" up in the trees, where the bears find them in just a few seconds.
"The temperatures are very high and their fur is very thick and it is not easy for them," said Taulant Hoxha, from the bear sanctuary.A bear eats fruits that the workers have thrown at an animal's pool at the Bear Sanctuary in Pristina, Kosovo, July 18, 2023.

The 20 bears living at the sanctuary, which is managed by Four Paws International, were rescued from private owners or from restaurants where they were kept as attractions for guests in spaces as small as four or five square metres.Reporting by Fatos Bytyci; Editing by Alexandra Hudson
