Pizza is being removed as one of showpiece exhibits at China’s Grandview Shopping Mall.
Today he is being removed as one of showpiece exhibits at China’s Grandview Shopping Mall and reunited with his parents at an ocean park.
Yet there are fears he may return to the shopping mall in Guangzhou once its zoo display has been renovated.
Pizza has become a global symbol of the horrors of animal captivity.
Video showing worrying signs of the three year old bear's mental decline with head swaying and repetitive pacing shocked animal lovers around the world last month.
There has been a huge international campaign for Pizza and today Humane Society International said it was “cautiously welcoming” news that Pizza was being returned today to an undisclosed ocean park in northern China where he was born, reuniting him with his parents.
The shopping male made its announcement via weibo.
HSI said that the weibo post monitored by Chinese animal activists, had seen the Mall announcing Pizza will temporarily move while the facility is renovated.
Both HSI and its partner, the Beijing Capital Animal Welfare Association, are calling for the mall to make his removal permanent. Mdm Qin, Director of Capital Animal Welfare Association, said: “It’s a good decision, the right decision for Pizza, but it’s not the end.
