Bear Beds

The Bears make a day bear bed to rest in 

and to fit their fat tummy into.

Our guests tested out the bear beds 

just to see how comfortable they are!

What do Bears do when they don't fish?

 

They hydrate to get ready to chase those salmon

They rest to conserve energy for catching salmon

They pretend to be a salmon in the creek
