Jersey Zoo announces public art trail to celebrate upcoming arrival of Asiatic black bears

Jersey Zoo announced plans for a new public art trail featuring sculptures of bears and bees spread across the island's wild landscapes, coastal spots, and urban spaces. The installation, launching in July next year, is designed to mark the arrival of Asiatic black bears in a new enclosure. Artists, schools, and community groups will be encouraged to submit designs to transform the sculptures into distinctive works of art. At the end of the summer, the installations will be sold at a fundraising auction, following the success of previous trails that raised significant funds for conservation projects.
