How we rescued the "dancing" bears: Kartick Satyanarayan on TED.com
Traditionally, the Kalandar community of India has survived by capturing sloth bear cubs and training them to “dance” through extreme cruelty. Kartick Satyanarayan has been able to put an end to this centuries-old practice, and in so doing discovered a lesson of wider significance: make the practitioners part of the solution.(Recorded at TEDIndia, November 2009, Mysore, India. Duration: 4:02)
