Sad farewell

It is with a heavy heart that we bid farewell to a beloved Berlin original. Julia, the spectacled bear, has passed away at the remarkable age of 26 - a testament to her resilience and strength.

Julia, born at the Tierpark in 1997, was not only a cherished resident but also a proud mother who enriched our community with her offspring. Unfortunately, her health rapidly declined last weekend due to epileptic seizures, coupled with age-related changes. Regrettably, we made the difficult decision to euthanize her. Julia will be dearly missed.
