Lotta Holmgren paints in one of the bear enclosures.

In the second are the bears - just two meters away.

The bears are constantly snorting and moaning and knocking on the small door that separates the two bear enclosures.

- The first day it felt hard, but it goes better and better every day.

But I probably never get used to it.

It feels special to walk around among bear suede, to hear the bears knocking on the door all the time.

If they open the door, then I run straight away, says Lotta Holmgren.

Proud of the assignment

She is happy and proud to have been given the task of repainting inside the bears.

- It's a really fun thing to do.

Paint a rock wall that is 90 meters long and six meters high.

It will be a nicer environment for visitors in the future, not a Kumla prison as it looks today, says Lotta Holmgren
