It sprouted again! And the one that sprouts first is a surprising amount of growth. It is growing steadily and the leaves are beginning to open. Currently, the first sprout is 12 cm. The next sprout is 3 cm. ↑ Bears waiting for containment (feeding time) in the sub-paddock. Joiner is the first to be camped! The bears are also eating food and producing stool. Health! In the summer, I was able to put 4 or 5 rooms on a cat (unicycle) for a cup, but now 2 rooms is the limit ... It's the time of year when it's getting hard to go back and forth to the filth store. ↑ The work of taking the bear out of the room into the chute (hallway). Today was a snowstorm day. [Breeding: Ito]

I decided to try growing Mizunara acorns. Why did you come up with such a thing? It started in the fall of this year. I picked up an acorn to eat for the bear, and when I forgot to put it in a plastic bag, the insects came out and the staff complained (sweat) (It seems that insects called weevils lay eggs!) When I was removing insects, I found some acorns that were sprouting, so I suddenly wanted to grow them on a whim. It's like that ( ́3') By the way, it looks like this now. Five children are growing up, and the fast-growing ones have already grown roots and sprouts. Actually, it may be better to take root in the fall and sprout in the spring as nature does, but I want them to grow quickly and play an active role in the garden, so I will keep watching them indoors in a warm room. 　 I'm a spontaneous person with no plan, but I'd like to watch over the acorns that have sprouted, so please stay with me m(_ _)m [Breeding: Ito]

Snow all day today! It was snowing all the time!! When I woke up in the morning, I was surprised to see that the area around the house was covered with snow. The morning commute road looks like this (@@;) Since it is heavy solid snow, the branches of the trees are covered with snow. Sarah & Moko were happy that it was snowing, and they were frolicking with their faces stuck in the snow during their morning and evening walks. 　 Today, the bears were moving somewhat slowly, and they often slept leisurely even when they went out to the sub-paddock. Lokta was lying face down on the snow, and he was "nobing" and "going" comfortably. It's cold and snowy. He had an indescribable mattari expression. It is said that this snow will melt in a few days, but please be careful when driving on snowy roads! [Breeding: Ito]

The past few days have been sunny and sunny, sweaty and calm as I work. During the season, the goats were located near the dog run, but they moved to the animal barn in preparation for winter. Huge blocks of straw and sheds are loaded onto the vehicle and moved. The goats put on a leash and moved ♪ to the animal house for a walk ← arrived at the animal house, and Atsuko, who is always bullish and powerful (laughs) The people in the park ... The development of facilities and roads is progressing steadily. Remove the chain of the huge gate and remove the dirt. Install it when it's clean! The chain is long! And it seems to be very heavy. 　 Young men are doing their best. When they returned to the office in the evening, their faces were exhausted (laughs). Nice middle-aged people are doing their best to maintain the roads where the park surveillance vehicles and bear-watching buses run. 　← Loading gravel on a transport truck with a backhoe A human runs on the road where the bear used to run! →→→→→↑ ↑This backhoe is a work of leveling gravel by clearing the road. It's a brilliant skill of the director! 　Sarah's watch...　→→→ I'm also doing my best to prepare for the ski resort! (^^)/ [Breeding: Ito]

It's November in the blink of an eye. Cleaning up the park and curing for the winter is progressing steadily. The bears are undergoing a health checkup before winter. The rest of the bears were relaxing in the sub-paddock. 　Makoto and Masayuki seem to be good Well, around 2:30 p.m. on October 31st... Just when I thought it was getting cold with the sun, snow flickered from the cloudy sky! Winter has finally arrived! (><). By the way, there was snow in the city of Shintoku today. Of course, Sahoro is also pure white! There was a little bit of sunshine a while ago, but it came down again. It's still a long way from snow, but the long winter is finally here. Prepare for winter as soon as possible, such as changing tires and protecting garden trees! [Breeding: Ito]

As of today, October 25th, we have closed for this year. The bears don't know that it's the last day, but ... I gave such bears the last treat that can be given in the (^^)/ park I gave them a whole frozen watermelon (>▽<) As soon as you drop it in the pond, you get Hirotake! The watermelon was still frozen, so I couldn't grab it and rolled ( ̄□ ̄;) around like a bowling ball. However, the bear is still smart (^^) I rolled it up from the pond to the land ( ́▽ ') no Hirotake was eating watermelon deliciously without being disturbed by anyone ^^ The lucky bear who was able to eat another watermelon is the oldest Shingo! !! This time, it seems that it has already melted a lot, and Shingo was slowly eating watermelon in the pond (^-^) From now on, the bears will prepare for winter. Thank you very much for visiting us this term. We will continue to update the progress of the winter sleep, so please (^^) take a look at the blog We look forward to seeing you next year as well. [Breeding: Miyatake]

Tomorrow at the earliest, this year's business will end. Sarah is coming out of the fence and Moko is looking forward to seeing you. The mountains of the Daisetsu Mountains are also covered with snow↓↓↓↓↓↓

Suddenly, what do you think about your buttocks? I always think that the buttocks are the universe itself. Now, as for the buttocks, I personally think that it is appropriate to divide them into "buttocks" for women and "buttocks" for men. I tried to write such a preface, but in the end, what I wanted to say was that I was excited! For a different kind of ass! But I think it's a "buttocks". In this world where there are only males, one butt (>M<) Beautiful shape, fluffy and fluffy, Yawara... It doesn't matter if it's a different species or whatever. People and bears, it's a small problem. I feel like Yawara has taught me a lot of things. [Breeding: Kurokawa]

Many students came to the event today on a school trip. Everyone cheered "Wow" at the power of the approaching bear, and it was lively. Well, today I gave the joiner an apple as a snack, and I got a little interesting photo, so I will introduce it. Put an apple in the pond ... Joiner rips off! There were other bears in the pond, so I quickly moved to the rocky area and tasted it slowly so as not to be intercepted. Today, I also gave them watermelons that I had frozen over the summer, and the bears dexterously held them with their paws and chewed on the whole thing! 　"Delicious ♪" [Breeding: Ito]

Today, Santa is hustling in the pond at Bear Point. Also, I was looking at the staff, so I lowered my posture and hid in the water. Then Santa said, "Oh, I can't see it!" As if to say, I pressed my face against the glass and looked down. 　"Where did you go?!" Still, when he couldn't see people, he stood up and slapped the surface of the water. Bears have a habit of reacting well to anything that moves. After all, I felt that I was more excited when people moved than when I was standing still through the glass, and I felt that I was playing in response to their movements. [Breeding: Ito]

It was a day when I felt the warmth of relief in the sunlight peeking through the clouds. Santa was enjoying playing in the water today. A puddle of water at the endpoint that I was using yesterday as well. It's like taking a bath. Around 12 o'clock, he appeared at Bear Point, monopolized the empty pond and played ♪ in the water vigorously ← back rubbing battle! !! ↑ Splash on the surface of the water with both forelimbs! Boom! The other bears have little interest in the other side of the glass, but Santa was so curious about his new surroundings that he observed and reacted to human behavior through the glass! When a person moves, they follow it with their eyes, or when they put their hands on the glass, they try to put their paws together in the same way. 　 When I showed him a replica of an apple that was on display in the exhibition room, he seemed to recognize it as "my favorite apple!" and stared at it. Seeing Santa's unusual reaction and fun playing made all the staff present happy. I'm glad that Santa was having a good time, and I'm glad that he seemed to be having a really good time. [Breeding: Ito]

Santa is the youngest (8 years old) bear in Bear Mountain. After a long matchmaking period with 17 bears, they made ★ their long-awaited debut in the park Walking in the park for the first time, a big bus, a jeep, and other bears that I have matched so far ... In the new environment, at first, they will squirm and fight (^^;) with other bears here and there. (Is it because of youth that you are so fond of fighting?!) ← have only been released for a few days, and he looks a little nervous Recently, he seems to have gotten used to the environment, walking around the park widely, bathing, and feeding. 　← Bathing and looking at the expression of satisfaction (at the end point) Contact with ← Yawara. Marking right in front of you! 　← scrubbing ... After this, we headed to Bear Point. We may suspend the release of the animal depending on the compatibility with other individuals and the physical condition, but this year's business is only a few days away, so please come by all means. Bear Mountain's energetic seal, Santa, is also waiting! (・D)/ [Breeding: Ito]

I found a lot of dogs at the dog park ~ o—-oU ・ E U It was so cute that "Let me take a picture!" and "Can I post it in the Bear Mountain News!?" I walked in. At first, we were welcomed by a large chorus, but even selfishly, "Please let me take a group photo," graciously cooperated. (Thank you <(_ _)>) Sara and Moko bark as if they want to play with them (^^;; They are a family from Obihiro, and in addition to the six cute dogs in the photo, they also have a husky dog. After all, animals are healed, and ♪ the dog run is scheduled to be open in winter, so please come and play!

Finally, I can't stand it anymore if I don't burn the stove morning and night at home ... It's the time of year when the bears are shedding, but I'm amazed at how drastically the joiners change every year! 　 　　→ before (summer) after (autumn) Summer photos are far away and difficult to see, but overall the hair is short and has a smooth impression. Especially around the neck and arms... Recently, long, soft winter hair has grown back and it seems to be very warm. It's like a carpet! Since it is so muffled, "forbidden thoughts" such as "I want to touch it ...". 　← joiner that sticks out of the screen.　It's huge!! 　　 Beautiful autumn leaves behind Rokuta resting in Shigemi [Breeding: Ito]

Yellow Leaf is also in the final game. As early as next week, 10/25 (Sunday), the 2009 business will end. There are only a few left!! It's easy to spot the black figure of a brown bear in the yellow leaves! And Joyner, her face is golden, so she matches the yellow leaves and is in a chameleon state (laughs) Bonus: Atsuko who is happy with the yellow leaf back

It is a promenade with a refreshing autumn breeze. There are green signs on both sides of the promenade. There is also a quiz secretly posted This quiz is very high-tech (!?). If (^^) you scan the QR code at the bottom right of the quiz with the QR code reading function of your mobile phone... The answer will appear on your phone screen! ♪ Since it is only read, there is no communication charge. There is nothing to block the promenade when the wind blows, so it was quickly broken down if it was a flipping type quiz. (Days of being busy rebuilding and reinforcing ...) A collaboration between Director Sakaide and me! This method is safe and does not waste paper. Please try the QR code quiz full of trivia about brown bears! [Breeding: Ito]

Sahoro was hardly affected by the typhoon, but on the first day of the three-day holiday, it is a wonderful autumn sun. This is exactly what a typhoon is all about! You can see the mountains of the Hidaka Mountains and the yellow leaves of Mt. Sahoro. Well, there are still some vacancies at the Sahoro Resort Hotel, which is about a 2-minute drive from Bear Mountain. We also have accommodation plans with Bear Mountain, so please come and visit us if you think about it. Of course, you can ( ̄(エ) ̄) also stop by, even if it's sunny, the maximum temperature is forecast to be 15 ° C, so it's very cold to observe without a jacket (()(=_=)) Please take measures against the cold and come and play.

There was almost no impact from the typhoon that we were worried about, and although it was delayed by one hour, we were able to open safely! However, perhaps the bears have become better due to the release of the animals at a time shift of one hour, and they usually go out of the animal house to the zoo, but today they don't come out at all (T△T) In particular, Shingo and Makoto may have mistakenly thought that they were contained (they can go back to their rooms and eat food), and once they went out into the park, they came back to the gate before they knew it. Bears have their own rhythm of life... Sorry. (But it's a typhoon, so I can't help it!) In the afternoon, the sun came through thin clouds. We hope that the weather will improve for the three-day holiday. So, did the typhoon bring cold air with you? I could see a faint snow near the top of the mountain that I could see from Sahoro. ↑ The triangular pointed mountain in the foreground is Mt. Shimohorokametok. The mountain behind it is also covered with snow ... This year, winter may be coming early. [Breeding: Ito]

I was distracted by Typhoon No. 18 and was completely late in uploading (excuse me, Sumimasen (^^;;) Today, Bear Mountain will be introduced on TV Hokkaido's "Playful DJ". It will be broadcast only in Hokkaido, but if you have time, please take a look. The Sahoro area is hardly affected by the typhoon, and we will be open for three consecutive holidays. When you go out to the eastern part of Hokkaido, please <(_ _)> stop by ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━■Playful DJ■ October 9 (Fri) 18:30-19:00 TV Hokkaido ─────────────────>>>>

ご覧の通りベアポイントにある池ですが、大きな柱を挟んで左側と右側では深さが違います。 遊歩道側（左）：浅い/水面がお腹の下　　サホロ岳側（右）：深い/水面が口元まで 分かりますか？ 水深のある右側に来ると、大きな足のつま先だけをちょこんと池底につけ歩くクマたち。 水面から顔を出すためつま先立ちなのか？浮力でつま先立ちなのか？定かではありませんが、プカプカと水中散歩も楽しそうですよ♪

今年は日照不足が影響して畑の作物の生育が遅れたり不作になっているそうですね。 山の実りはどうでしょうか。 ベアマウンテンの園内、あちこちに生えているミズナラ、ヤマブドウ、ミヤママタタビの実のなりを確認してみました。 遊歩道近くのミズナラは去年よりも少なめですがちゃんと実はつけていました。 実がふくらみ茶色に熟してきたなぁ〜、今年もリスが来て食べるのかな〜、なんて思っていたころ、気がつくとほとんどの実がなくなっていたのです。 地面に落ちてしまったのか、知らぬ間にリスが食べていったのか… それにしても今年は実がなくなるのが早すぎました。う〜ん。 ヤマブドウも実の沢山ある木と無い木で、差がありました。 ↑貴重な実り。５〜６ｓ間のヤマブドウ。 獣舎脇になっているミヤママタタビ。去年は不作でしたが今年はみごとななりでした！！ こちらは獣舎でサンタに与えてみました。 キウイフルーツのような甘みとさわやかな酸味★ サンタもおいしそうに一粒一粒、味わいながら食べていました。 発芽したミズナラのドングリを発見！ 無事大きく育って実をつけてほしいですね。 「最近の個人的･お気に入りショット」　秋の日差しにまどろむヒロタケ 【飼育：伊藤】
