Bear Point is Koji's favorite. My good friend Hirotake and I are bathing in the pond today. Did you walk through the yabu on your way to Bear Point? Bamboo leaves are hanging on the buttocks. Hardcore (?!) It is a bamboo leaf that does not suit Koji with a personality. (^3^) 〜Once a delusion〜 ← Puka Puka from the buttocks ... I'm sure it's like this... The bamboo propeller on the buttocks starts to rotate ... I wonder if I'm going to look for my good friend Hirotake... (It was too silly!) Koji, I'm sorry! [Breeding: Ito]

In order to survive the hot summer, the breeding staff gave the brown bears ice with homemade snacks. Hirotake showed interest in the ice placed next to the bus path so that he could see it from the bear watching bus. In order to take out only the snacks that are laid out in the middle, I hold a large ice cube weighing about 20 kg with one hand and lay it down, and scratch it out with my proud claws. And maybe I wanted to break the ice with my weight, so I put my forelimbs on the ice and pushed it from above, but I couldn't move forward and push it well. Roll the ice again and go to the shoulder of the road. Is it not so obsessive? Without even looking at him, he disappeared into the forest with his companion.

It rained for the first time in a long time, and the temperature dropped, making it a happy day for the bears. Today, the joiner is busy carrying nest materials to make the cave comfortable. Collecting grass has been a recent craze, but today it is Nantes! Even a small pine tree growing nearby fell prey to the joiner. Moreover, even though I brought it all the way, I don't sleep on the pine ...! I'm sure I'm not the only one who saw the profile of the joyner sleeping next to Matsu looking heartlessly satisfied. "I did it again today." If you're lucky enough to see a whimsical joiner making a bed, please take a closer look! [Breeding: Ito]

It's been a long time since the sun has passed. There are many trees around the animal house (bear house), and the negative ions that are popular now are in full swing. Sometimes I feel hot and tired while working, but it feels like "summer!" for the first time in a long time. Summer in Hokkaido often passes before you know it, so don't (^^) forget to enjoy it By the way, there is a birch growing near the animal house, do you see the hole in the center of the photo? In fact, it is a place where birds visit every year, although I have not confirmed the species, and make it their home. In the course of my work, I often pass by it, and sometimes I hear a voice squealing. I'm wondering what kind of bird it is, but we'll keep a quiet eye on it. [Breeding: Kurokawa]

Right in the middle of the bus course, I found a joiner sleeping on the ridge of the 3rd stream! Did you find it?! Mr. Joyner, it's (^^) an "actor" to sleep in a place where you can easily see from the bus 20 minutes later... After another 20 minutes... I tried not to pass by the jeep as much as possible so as not to wake up, but sometimes I slept in a different pose every time I passed by (laughs). It may be ♪ interesting to pay attention to the bear's nap pose and observe it [Breeding: Ito]

Today, we held our first "Ice Giveaway" of the season! Ice was installed in three locations: at the 3rd shelter, at the end of the road, and in front of the glass at Bear Point. Makoto was the first to find ice at Bear Point. Makoto, who came to Bear Point unusually, snuggled his nose! Perhaps attracted by the unusual smell, I found ice and immediately began to pluck my favorite apple with my claws on my paws. 　Gari-gari, hoji-hoji! 　I'm obsessed with eating delicious apples and pellets. However... Makoto, who had finished eating the delicious part, was satisfied, took a bath, and left. ( ́ to ') only about 30 minutes during this time ... The point of reflection this time was that the delicious part was easily eaten. The next time I make ice, I want to use the "delicious part last" strategy to make the ice last ♪ longer so that the bears don't get tired of it. 　Inuo: Feast ♪ (at the endpoint) ■ Ice gift for brown bears 8/2, 8, 9, 15, 16 9 a.m. [Breeding: Ito]

Hello! I'm Nekko, an apprentice! I've been studying at Bear Mountain since the 21st. There are still so many things I don't know, and every day is fresh! I can't believe I can see a bear so close... I'm happy! The work is slow, and it's hard to remember the bear's name, so I keep bothering the staff. It's a short period until the end of the training, but I'll do my best, so thank you! 【Trainee Neko】

There is a small pond (biotope) in the center of Bear Point. This pond was handmade by the zookeeper with the hope that frogs and insects would come. I did a general cleaning of the pond today, but I can't see the bottom because of the accumulation of fallen leaves and mud (><;) While pumping water out of the bucket, I found a suspicious shadow moving. It's huge!　It's so big! It was a big yago that must have been 5 to 6 cm. This yago was the pond nushi! I pray that the pond will be comfortable to live in and grow into a magnificent dragonfly.

Bears don't care about bear-watching buses at all. They walk right next to it, take a nap on the bus road, and don't react to the bus. After marking with the symbol tree, Suzunosuke goes to the top of the hill to steal the snack. Push out the bear that was ahead of you and Suzunosuke wins! When bears meet each other, they greet each other by smelling each other's odors, threaten them with their voices, and run away at a glance when they find a strong partner. This time, it was Suzunosuke who closed the gap and succeeded in pushing out without touching the opponent.

Sahoro Resort is introduced in a special feature in the August/September issue of MID Style published by a general dealer of imported cars. Not only Bear Mountain, but also information on Sahoro such as activities, hotels, and restaurants is posted over 7P. It will be distributed at MID dealers from 7/25 in Sapporo and 7/27 in Hakodate and Kanto areas, so if you see it, please pick it up and take a look. Kumaemon and Joiner were taken in a cool photo (*^-^) http://www.bubu-iss.com/news.html#midstyle

Unfortunately, the sky is rainy and the sky is unusual, but the bears seem to be spending their time comfortably. 2. The leaves of the Yellow-bellied Plant, which can be seen from the shelter, have turned pink. According to the encyclopedia, "The white part of the tip of the leaf turns pink during the flower season." Naruhodo! The saplings planted in the center of Bear Point have also grown greatly. Joiner is still in the cave today with Sesse Sesse and Grass [♪ Breeding: Ito]

Grandpa Inuo is the oldest dog on Bear Mountain. It was probably two or three days ago. On the first sunny and warm afternoon in a while, I was taking a nap by the bus path. I thought to myself, ``You look so cozy~ (^^)'' when I took a closer look at his face...ha...his eyes were half-closed! （＠△＠；）? Her mouth is loose...! ! What kind of good dreams did you have? After that, when the sun started shining on the place where I was sleeping, was it hot? I moved to another location and resumed my nap. <Bonus> Unfortunately it's raining today. “Ennui Hirotake” [Breed by: Ito]

He did it again! ! Joyner in front of the cave. Something was messing around. What if? ! So I immediately went up to the promenade to take a look... and they did it again! ! Collect grass and build a nest? ! They were working hard to move the grass that was growing under the promenade! ! Carry it further into the cave. For some reason, I stopped midway and went to the pond to look for fish. Joyner goes to the pond when all the other bears are gone, so I wonder if this is the end of today's nest building (?)... (^^;) Just as I was thinking about this, Joyner appeared again in the evening! ! Then I just carry the grass back to the cave. Inside the cave, they were spreading out and collecting the grass they had collected. After that, we went to the pond again to catch some fish. Today's nest building (?) was completed and Joyner went back to the animal pen. In the end, the inside of the cave will look like this... It looks like he will really be stuck in the winter (^^;) I look forward to seeing Joyner's future actions (｀△´) [Raising: Miyatake]

Bilingual magazine "SAPPORO SOURCE" was launched last month (June 10, 2009). As the title suggests, ``Bear Mountain'' was introduced in the July issue of a free magazine that disseminates local information mainly to foreigners staying in SAPPORO (Sapporo). It is introduced not only in English but also in Japanese, so even those who are not good at English can obtain information. It is installed in Sapporo, so if you see it, please pick it up and read it.

Spring to early summer is the love season for bears, and the bears at Bear Mountain also exhibit behaviors unique to this time of year. This is also the time when you often see people doing back rubs to emphasize their presence. ↑Scrubbing the glass of the bear point... ``I'm strong~'' And the ``group behavior'' seen during this time.Some bears act together in groups that are compatible with each other, and some bears frequently sniff each other... This is a time when bears that are conscious of the presence of other individuals stand out in their behavior. Is this group behavior unique to Bear Mountain? I don't know for sure, but once the heat period has passed, they tend to lose their tightness, so it's really strange (^^;) ↑Canter is popular among the bears. Sometimes there are groups of 4 or 5 animals, with the canter at the center, and among the staff they are called the ``canter group'' or ``the canter party.'' (Anyway, why is Canter so popular? Does his sturdy body make him look like a man?! ^^) ↑ Bears sniffing and greeting each other Recently, the heat has subsided, and the bears have regained their composure. I'm sure the heat will be harsh for both the bears and us in the upcoming season, but we want the bears to cool down in the cold streams in the park and do their best to survive (^▽^) [Raising: Ito]

Mr. Joyner has curly hair around his face and looks a little reminiscent of Mr. Ba** and Mr. Beethoven, which are displayed in the school's music room. Inside, he's just a friendly bear. morning! I found a caterpillar (lime green inchworm) on Joyner's curly hair! (You can see it, right between the transmitter and the mouth.) Noon! The caterpillar landed above Joyner's left eye! (lol). I wonder if it doesn't itch. In fact, bears in the wild are said to be useful for the movement of various creatures. For example, seed dispersal... There are also some clever ones that move along with their hair. The common practice is that the grass seeds move along with the hair. By eating the seeds with the fruit, they move to another location as poop! That's true. Bring it on, bring it on. Plus, poop is a great source of nutrition!

There was a joiner in front of the cave around noon today. Joyners don't go into caves very often, so I was wondering if they would leave soon...but then I noticed that they were doing something in front of the cave. I immediately went up to the promenade to see what it was doing, and it looked like it was digging in the grass. And what! ! They are dragging the uprooted grass into the cave! (￣□￣;) It looked like they were building a nest. (^^;) Is it really winter? ! While I was thinking about this, Misumi and Kumaemon, who Joyner doesn't like, came near the cave and Joyner ran away. (＞□＜) I wanted to see the continuation... After that, Joyner was happily playing in the pond where no one was around (･△･) Joyner is a bear who really doesn't know what he's thinking... (＾□＾;) [Raised by Miyatake]

Hirotake poked his head out of the thicket and looked around. I was wondering what on earth I was looking at, but Misumi was riding along the bus path in the distance! Nosshi! I was walking. Apparently, Hirotake saw Misumi, who was not good at it, and ran away. <Hirotake pokes its nose into the air and surveys its surroundings> [Created by: Ito]

There is an acorn tree on the grounds of Bear Mountain. The photo shows a baby Quercus acorn (the part pointed to with a ballpoint pen). Bears (in the wild) also eat this. The Bear Mountain bears also eat well with their mouths. What I am concerned about this year is that I can see the withered leaves, like the one on the bottom left of the photo. If the acorns are not in good condition, bears in the wild will have a hard time making ends meet, so I hope they turn out well.

It rained heavily today, the temperature was low, and the bears were actively moving around. On sunny days, bears don't like the heat and often take a bath. As you walk along the promenade towards the end point, you will see a large stream under the bridge, which is a popular bathing spot. It is commonly known as ``3-no-sawa''. The problem is that it is located directly under the promenade, so it is difficult to notice even if a bear is bathing. To avoid overlooking the precious sight of bears bathing, be sure to pay close attention to the sound of the water and the bears' snorts when walking near waterholes♪ There are many ways to bathe! Suzunosuke in the photo was playing while hugging a tree branch (^^) [Created by: Ito]

Joiner climbed to the top of the cave next to Bear Point. You can observe it up close from the promenade. Are you looking for something? Try moving a log, sticking his nose into a hole in the wall...time flies as you watch Joyner's actions that will never forget the boy's heart. Was there nothing to find here? I moved to a different place.

4 people gather in the cave! ! ! ! All four of them left immediately after this. I will bring you a photo taken at a nice time (sorry for the blurry m(_ _”m))
