The Wildwood Trust said: “We are very pleased to report that Boki is awake and is doing as well as can be expected following his brain surgery yesterday.
“We are, of course, not out of the woods but he has been checked over this morning by Romain Pizzi and our vet, Elliott Simpson-Brown, from IZVG and they are happy with his recovery so far.
“The team at Wildwood will continue to monitor him closely to make sure he is responding to treatment.”
Specialist wildlife veterinary surgeon Dr Pizzi carried out the surgery, which aimed to drain fluid from the bear’s brain, at Wildwood Trust.
