Taipei Zoo is inviting visitors to check out changes to its new Asiatic black bear enclosure.
The zoo announced that 18-year-old Belle is settling well in her new home in the temperate zone, after moving there last October.
Keepers say she has displaying a range of natural behaviors including digging, splashing in a large pool, and using enrichment props to forage for food.
To give her more opportunities to climb, keepers added a wooden perch structure to the enclosure.
And they say she has since been spotted rubbing her back against various parts of the frame and using it for eating and sleeping.
Belle is one of three Asiatic black bears currently on display at the Taipei Zoo.
