Free Polar Bears From Torture Chamber

Target: Sun Zhe, Mayor of Harbin

Goal: Save polar bears held captive under cruel conditions for human amusement.

The recently opened “Polar Bear Hotel” in Harbin, China is named after the polar bears that are held captive inside the building. The hotel is part of the Harbin Polarland theme park and uses a disgusting display of live animals to draw in paying visitors.

The animals are forced to live in a tiny enclosure with small ponds and artificial ice and are constantly being stared at by the inhabitants of the hotel’s 21 guest rooms. Or as the Harbin Polarland’s official WeChat account claims: “Whether you’re eating, playing, or sleeping, polar bears will keep you company.” The management of the park never appears to consider that polar bears are wild animals that belong in the Arctic, and not in an enclosure for human entertainment. Although the hotel supposedly has an outdoor pen available for the bears, it does not even remotely allow them to follow their natural behavior.

Sign this petition to prohibit the ownership of animals in the Polar Bear Hotel, and have the two polar bears rehomed to a proper facility.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Mr. Zhe,

The “Polar Bear Hotel” in Harbin spreads a distorted image of animal care. The captive polar bears are used to draw in paying visitors and the animals suffer as a result.

The bears cannot follow their instincts while living in a tiny artificial environment ice and being constantly stared at by people. Polar bears belong in the wild and not in human hands. The Polar Bear Hotel should never be allowed to keep animals again. You must end their suffering by rehoming the two bears to a proper facility far away from human exploitation.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

  5. Debra Reece Simons says:

    It is horrific and abusive.

    Animals are not here for our amusement nor to quell our boredom. We need to be stewards and caretakers of these magnificent animals and they need to be safely in sanctuaries where they can be safe from exactly this sort of mindless entertainment for the masses.

  6. Evan Jane Kriss says:

    It is UNCONSCIONABLE and EGREGIOUSLY INHUMANE to imprison ANY ANIMALS, much less ENDANGERED SPECIES. RELEASE THEM TO SANCTUARY NOW.

  7. Victoria De Lange says:

    This is sickening wildlife exploitation. Remove the bears and cancel this revolting display.

  8. Valerie Elizabeth Adams says:

    I’m sorry, but when I read the headline and saw that it was a hotel, my first thought was China.

  9. Dolores Proubasta says:

    Do NOT buy Chinese garbage, do not do business with them, do not visit China… until Mr Zhe stops torturing Polar Bears, and beyond.

    Dear Mr. Zhe,

    CHINA THIS IS AGAIN DISGUSTING AND VILE! STOP USING ANIMALS UNDER HE GUISE OF CARE FOR YOUR TWISTED GREEDY MONEY DRIVEN AGENDAS.

    START PUTTING ALL ANIMALS FIRST. FOR GOD’S SAKE AND HUMANITY!!!!! I WILL NEVER VISIT YOUR COUNTRY!!!

    STOP IMMEDIATELY! THESE BEARS ARE SUFFERING…..THIS IS SO TWISTED . STOP STOP STOP FREE ALL THE BEARS ALL THE ANIMALS!!!!!

    AND SHUT DOWN ALL YOUR ANIMALSMARKETS – EAT VEGETABLES!!!!!!!!!!!!IT CAN AND HAS BEEN DONE BY MANY WORLD OVER…..GET WITH THE TIMES!!!

  11. It’s the viciously, depraved, horrid conditions that these poor bears have to endure under your hands! This is inhumane! They CANNOT EXIST IN UN-NATURAL HABITAT! PLEASE RELINQUISH ALL THE ANIMALS AT THE HOTEL TO A REPUTABLE SANCTUARY IMMEDIATELY!!

  12. Brenda Burke says:

    We all know this wrong. Stop going to this hotel and if you have relatives over there please explain to them that this is so wrong and ask them not to visit.

  13. All those involved in this horror need to be chained in this small enclosure, for all to see, for the rest of their lives….Despicable, Reprehensible, CRUEL, EVIL IN MY OPINION

  14. Michelle Stewart says:

    Those poor polar bears must be rescued from there immediately. They must go to a sanctuary since they probably couldn’t survive on their own. They’ve been held captive too long. If any hotels or other places decide to display poor animals like this, they all must be shut down. The animals must be rescued. There must be a law made not allowing this to happen ever again. No more exploiting and cruelty to any animals

  15. It’s the blasted, despicable Chinese AGAIN! For heaven’s sake WHAT is wrong with them?! They have no feelings towards animals whatsoever ( unless it’s their precious pandas). What do you expect if a country that eats ANYTHING! Please do not buy Chinese. Do not visit China. They don’t deserve our money. These poor polar bears must be rescued NOW!

  16. I have a suggestion for the hotel managers and which will treble their income money. This is the suggestion Put your wives nude instead of the bears and money will start flooding in for sure.

  17. Elizabeth Rutledge says:

    I AM LITERALLY BEGGING YOU TO RELEASE THE WILD POLOR BEARS! Please put yourself in their “Paws.” Can you imagine being forced to live in a cage so these people can just look at you? Bears and all animals feel just the way you and I do. They feel a freak, claustrophobic, scared, and they bleed like us because they feel pain like us. Again, I AM PLEADING WITH YOU TO HELP THESE POLAR BEARS! They are not your property, they deserve to have a life that they can live and health and happiness.

  18. What a horrible way to treat a majestic animal, locked in a dreadful little space with no real air, no room to roam, no peace and quiet. It’s animal abuse and reflects badly on the hotel – no living being deserves to be locked in some tacky hotel exhibit, it’s disgraceful.

  19. Anything for the almighty dollar, stop this idiocy, those bears are not yours to display,
    Try making a real living that doesn’t exploit animals!

  20. This is Pure EVIL!!!! You are SADISTIC EVIL MONSTERS FOR DOING THIS!!!~ These Polar Bears need to bed SAVED!!!~!
