Newhouse Wildlife Rescue took her in and cared for her, but now there's a debate about whether she should go back into the wild. A judge has temporarily stopped this plan, and over 22,000 people support keeping Nibi at the rescue until spring.The rescue's founder, Jane Newhouse, worries that Nibi might struggle to adapt before winter sets in. They even asked a court for an emergency injunction, hoping Nibi could stay or become an educational ambassador. The Massachusetts Governor, Maura Healey, has also shown interest, wanting to ensure Nibi's well-being. This story raises questions about animal welfare and how humans can influence wild animals' lives. It shows the power of compassion and devotion in caring for creatures like Nibi. As we wait for her fate to be decided, it's clear that many people care deeply about her future.
