6. SOUNDBITE (English): Dr Arun Sha, Veterinary Officer, Wildlife SOS :
"Actually, in the process of making the animal as a dancing bear, these gypsies used to torture them a lot. Like in the three months of their age, they used to castrate the male bears by using ordinary shaving blade and in those places they put mud or ashes. They won't go for veterinary care or they wouldn't even bother about the health of the animals. So that one, and they used to knock out the canine teeth so they can easily handle the bear when it has become adult. Then the third thing is they used to put a red hot iron on the nose and they pierced the nose to tie a rope or a ring."

11. SOUNDBITE (English): Dr Arun Sha, Veterinary Officer, Wildlife SOS :
"Immediately after the quarantine period, we are leaving the bear into a smaller socialisation pen. There they can mingle with other bears. So in those period we have to observe the bear - which bear and bear is getting along, which bear he does not like. So those kind of personal behavioural observation we are doing. So after that period we are leaving them into a bigger, comparatively bigger area and then third step is to bigger safari area."

20. SOUNDBITE (English): Dr Arun Sha, Veterinary Officer, Wildlife SOS :
"The main thing is the trauma and the pain is the first thing we are taking care of the bear whenever, immediately after rescuing. And then (they are) highly dehydrated. There won't be...they won't get sufficient bodyweight at that age. Sometimes we used to get ten months, one year old cubs from and up to eight years, nine years old adult bears. They are all afraid of human beings and whenever we are approaching, they used to shout at us and they used to express their unhappiness because if somebody, any human being is coming closer to the bear, they used to think, 'they will harm me, they will hurt me'."

LEAD IN :
Dancing bears are still a familiar sight on the streets of India.
Often traumatised and poorly treated, these bears are now being rescued by a wildlife charity, rehabilitated and kept in semi-wilderness at a specially developed sanctuary.
STORYLINE :
This is the bear rescue sanctuary at the Bannerghatta National Park near the Indian city of Bangalore.
Here these 57 sloth bears are given a balanced diet, treats like honey and plenty of room to explore.
But life for the bears was not always this good.
Many of them have been rescued from a life on the streets where they worked as dancing bears.
