130405_a.jpgBears have begun to wake up from winter hibernation in early March.

Yesterday, I went outside for the first time in a long while to stock the sub-paddock.

Today's weather is sunny and the temperature is 1℃ (as of 8 o'clock)

The sun is shining and it's warm and cheerful.

130405_b.jpgAll of our staff are designed for cold regions.

It feels warmer when the temperature is plus.

Today's release is these 5 animals!

130405_c.jpgFirst up is Bear Mountain's handsome ``Kumaemon.''

Recently, the popularity of Kumamon has been on the decline (?), but he captured the hearts of women at this year's first Tehepero x2☆

130405_d.jpgNext is the seal! ...not... "Yawara"

I rubbed my body on the snow and rolled around, or I sat in the sun even though I didn't have a backrest.

A soothing bear that makes you feel warm when you look at it.

13040_e. jmpYou often see old men like this on the streets (lol)

130405_f.jpg"Canter" is the largest animal on Bear Mountain.

It looks like their bodies are bathed in sunlight. Even so, it looks dazzling...

130405_g.jpg"Koji" has big brother skin. Also sunbathing.

Peel off the wood, chew it up, and make a mess. I'm taking a break, probably satisfied.

Director Sasaki says, ``The weather is nice today, so the bears are calm.''

As the word suggests, time passes by so leisurely that it's hard to believe you're standing on the cold snow.

With less than a month until the opening, the staff is preparing at a rapid pace.
