Lawsuit to Save Bear Stuck at Pennsylvania Ice Cream Shop

Ricky the bear has endured 18 years in an undersized chain-link and concrete cage with very little enrichment and poor overall care. Watch Ricky's video:

Bears require large, environmentally complex spaces in which to engage in their typical movements, such as bathing, exploring, climbing, and denning. Yet Ricky is confined to a small chain-link and concrete pen without enrichment or protection from the weather. And she has been in these conditions despite public complaints.

ALDF filed the lawsuit on behalf of concerned Pennsylvania residents against Jim Mack’s Ice Cream for displaying Ricky in inhumane and dangerous conditions. The lawsuit argues that the conditions of Ricky’s confinement also pose a threat to public safety at the Lincoln Highway-based store.

ALDF's pledge has reached over 12,000 signatures, a Care2 petition has reached over 100,000 signatures, and celebrity Ricky Gervais recently took up her cause on social media.
