After that, continue the trip by visiting the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Center. The sun bear is the smallest, most arboreal and least known of the bear family measuring between 120–150 cm long and between 60-78 cm high at the shoulder. Unlike other bears, the sun bear’s dark brown or black fur is short and sleek, probably due
to the lowland climates it lives in. On their chest sits a pale beige horseshoe shape marking which gives the sun bear its name being saidto resemble a setting or rising sun. Similar color fur can be found around the muzzle and the eyes. Sun bears in Borneo live in the forest. In fact, they are so clever at hiding themselves in the trees that you would be extremely lucky if you seeone in the wild. Then proceed for lunch at a Mango Garden Restaurant.
