Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre (BSBCC)
Meet some of the island's most famous inhabitants in their native habitat at Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre (BSBCC). Opened in 2014, the center rehabilitates sun bears that have been rescued from captivity, then reintroduces them to the wild in the surrounding nature reserve. Visit the main center to learn about the conservationists' important work, as well as the threats posed to these distinctive and desperately endangered creatures. Stand on wooden observation decks to watch the bears play, climb, and feed as they head down the road to recovery. It couldn't be easier to arrange your visit to Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre (BSBCC) and many more Sandakan attractions: make an itinerary online using Inspirock's Sandakan trip planner.
