There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Closest subspecies for replacement of Atlas Bears would be the Syrian Brown Bears. 
The Atlas range can provide perfectly similar habitat. (Not wasting time pondering over possible areas outside their historical home range. IUCN doesn't allow it & rightly so...)

Much of their own homerange is under Socio-political turmoil. The Iraqi forces killed one last month.
Moving the survivors left in Syria & Turkey is a rather sensible idea.

Except for another thing...
Wiki suggests that Cantabrian brown bear likely may have been introduced to Africa from Spain by the Romans who imported bears for spectacles.
