I think the best that can be hoped is that she gets to be in a sanctuary or similar facility that is a very natural environment for her rather than a cage.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08386369227077404895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5517176012861550589.post-24234703472252518092009-02-14T18:25:00.000+11:002009-02-14T18:25:00.000+11:00Sam will not be released back to the wild, she's b...Sam will not be released back to the wild, she's become iconic. People will want to met her, interact with her. She's now too important to be let go.<BR/><BR/>And then there's the fact she's amazingly tame. She's become used to people, and to being handled by them. There's every possibility that even if she is released back to the wild she'll approach humans for the companionship and help they provide. It happens with some of the seal and sea otter rescues around here.<BR/><BR/>So don't expect Sam to see the great wide open any time soon, without a human for security and comforting.mythusmagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10458869083534878283noreply@blogger.com
