Can Rootschat do a press release telling our story?  Not sure where to send it though - maybe the local Wales newspaper?  Or the Daily Mail? At very least we should post it on the facebook page.

If we knew how to do it, yes.  :-[

It's been put on Facebook and Twitter already, but if people can retweet, or like the topic, or forward this story onto people then it will help get the word out :)

Perhaps we should contact the Mature Times with a link to this thread so they can see how the search evolved leading to the repatriation of bear and owner. I'm sure Robert Glyn Baker would be fascinated to learn of our quest to find him.

Marg,

Thanks, I'd already contacted them on that, but thank you ever so much anyhow.
