The purpose of the Southeast Texas Bear Refuge is to provide care and welfare for orphaned, abused, abandoned, neglected, confiscated or captive bred surplus black bears. The refuge offers temporary placement during relocation or medical treatment, as well as offering a permanent home for a limited number of black bears. (AP Photo/The Courier, Eric S. Swist)
