Mykhailo Tomashevsky keeps his beehives in the highlands of the Ukrainian #Carpathians. Once a #bear came to the #apiary and started to damage hives and bees, resulting in a huge loss. However, the #beekeeper is not angry with the animal and does not want to harm it. He has chosen a peaceful way and installed an electric fence to protect the apiary. Sometimes the bear visits the apiary but no longer dares to break into the hives. There are just 17000 bears left in Europe (excluding Russia), and WWF is working to protect them across the Green Heart of Europe. #Coexistence is possible!
Location: Nikovata, Mykulychyn village, Ivano-Frankivsk Region, #Ukraine.
