Regrettably, sables are often hunted for their fur, with some individuals breeding them on farms solely for this purpose.

One day, while scrolling through her mobile phone, Zhenya stumbled upon an advertisement for a sable being offered for sale. In a spontaneous act of compassion, she decided to purchase the sable, rescuing it from an uncertain fate.

Initially, her intention was to grant this small creature a chance to experience life in the wild. However, Zhenya soon discovered that the sable’s upbringing on a farm had left it ill-equipped to thrive in the wilderness. Consequently, she made the decision to adopt the sable, giving it a name Umora.

Zhenya and Umora quickly forged a profound bond, as they navigated the challenges brought on by Umora’s difficult past on the farm. While Zhenya acknowledges that caring for a sable is no easy task, she dedicates her time and care to ensure Umora’s well-being.
