As of today, the 23rd, this season's business has ended.
Despite the unfortunate bad weather, the bears appeared to be in good spirits.

Actually, this melon is a delicious melon from Furano!
Looks delicious...(^^*)
This will be the last time for us to see the bears in the park, but after they have been anesthetized and checked for health, they will begin preparing for winter retreat.
At Bear Mountain, all the bears are hibernating in the winter, just like other bears in the wild.
There are many things that are still unknown about brown bears' winter confinement, and we, the breeding staff, are looking forward to winter confinement in order to collect valuable data.
I would like to tell you about the situation, so please look forward to it!
All of our staff are looking forward to seeing you again next year! !
