え？！クマのお見合いって何をするの？…と思ったそこのあなた（＠△＠）／ クマの世界にもお見合いというものがあります。 簡単に言うと、顔見知りにすることを「お見合い」というんです！ まずは限られた隙間やオリごしにクマを対面させて視覚、嗅覚、聴覚で相手を認識させます。 この段階で飼育係はクマ同士の相性を観察します。 クマによって、くんくんにおいを嗅いだり、興奮して扉を叩いたり、口からカプカプと威嚇音を出したり、まったく興味がないのか違う方向を向いて眠ってしまったり反応は様々です。 クマ同士の相性を見ながらお見合いを数日続けます。 （しかし相性が悪い場合は数週間〜数ヶ月かけてお見合いすることもあります） 「お見合いが」終われば次は同じ空間内に同居（ＭＩＸ：ミックス）させます。 お見合いからＭＩＸへ移行するときが一番判断が難しいです。 ケンカをしたときにそなえてジープがいつでも仲裁に入れるように待機します。 今は、昨年のぼりべつクマ牧場からきたサンタがベアマウンテンの古株メンバーたちとお見合い、ＭＩＸをしています。８歳のサンタは動きがすばやく若くてエネルギッシュな印象を受けるクマです。 ヒロタケとのＭＩＸを終了し現在はコウジとのＭＩＸを行っています。 またＭＩＸの近況をお届けしますので、お楽しみに！ 【飼育：伊藤】

遊歩道からバズーカ砲のような望遠レンズで狙っているお客様を発見！！ 見た目はこんな感じです。 「何を狙っているんだろう？」と一眼レフもどきの18倍ズームでアップにしてみると・・・ 水たまりの脇と、立ち木の根元で木を枕に眠る姿を発見☆ よーく見ると、目開いてるかも？？？ 望遠鏡の貸し出しも行っているので、クマたちを見逃さないように観察しましょう！ 高さ5ｍあると、新芽の様子も間近で見られます。

It's been this season. When I came back from a walk, I found a tick on my face. Moreover, Moko has two Σ ( ゚□ ゚;) When you return from playing outside, check your clothes and body for ticks! Sarah & Moko

♪ I had a little song in my head called Umeha - Bloomed / Saku - Cherry Blossom Still Isna ♪ , so I thought that the cherry blossoms would bloom after the plum blossoms. However, Karikatsu Kogen Park was the opposite, and today, when the cherry blossoms began to end, the plum blossoms began to bloom. So, I immediately went to see the cherry blossoms ☆ If the weather is good as it is, it will be in full bloom from this weekend! ?? Along Route 38, there is a sign saying "Plum Garden in Bloom". Sarah & Moko

Canta's forehead, which was introduced as "cured" in September last year. In addition, hair is falling out in two places. Is it too much marking? Or is it because of the change of seasons? Canter looks like two bumps above the eyes. It's easy to identify individuals, but it's cured, isn't ( ̄(エ) ̄) it?

Sahoro in spring. We are approaching the cherry blossom viewing season so much that I don't think I can (ToT) work on such a day. The cherry blossoms under the national highway sign are also in full bloom! The rows of cherry blossom trees in Karikatsu Kogen Park are also in full bloom ♪ I took a cherry blossom viewing walk with Sara and Moko, but the two of them were far from cherry blossoms...what are they staring at??? Tomorrow (5/11), the cherry blossom festival will be held at Shintoku Shrine Mountain, about 15 minutes by car from Bear Mountain. Sahoro Resort will also open a stall to sell hotel maid bread! There is also an event called "Yellow Flower of Happiness". Near the cherry blossom festival venue, let's plant daffodils at Shintokuyama Ski Resort and make the slopes yellow with happiness! This is the strategy. After experiencing the bear, please come and see the cherry blossoms, plant daffodils, and feel the breath of spring ヾ (〃^∇^)

Thick clouds are approaching from the direction of Mt. Sahoro, and it seems that it will rain for the first time in a long time?! It is an empty pattern. The previous "They came again this year" is part 1, and I will secretly (^^) watch the growth of the Ezo red frog from now on. Eggs laid in the pond in the center of Bear Point, if you look at them for the first time in 6 days The black part (embryo) inside the egg was approaching the shape of a tadpole from the round. The parent frogs, of which there were more than 10, have completely disappeared, It is a quiet pond. 【Breeding: Ito】 〜Inuo today〜 "Take a bath and refresh"

Is it because the bears behave well on a daily basis (?!) Sahoro has nice weather today. Today I saw the forecast of cloudiness and wore long sleeves, but I failed ... It's so hot that even I get sweaty, so I wonder if the bears are also like "I didn't like it"? ?? I found Suzunosuke bathing in the river! Inuo goes to the shade of the tree beside the 3 shelter and is lying ... ( ́e').・ ゚ ゚ In the stream, in the sasayab, in the shade of the trees, etc., each person knows a place to cool off in their own way. 【Breeding: Ito】

On the last day of GW, the cherry blossoms at Sahoro Resort belatedly began to bloom. Therefore, I will declare the flowering of cherry blossoms without permission!!! (And the flowering status without permission) Shinnai Pond Ezo Yamazakura Will it bloom tomorrow? On the way to the pond, the greenery of the shoots is dazzling. Also, there are people walking comfortably on the water in canoes ☆ Some of the Chishima cherry blossoms in front of the hotel are in bloom. A row of cherry blossom trees in Karikatsu Kogen Park. It blooms in five parts and pink flowers stand out. Under the national highway sign at the entrance of Sahoro Resort is about three parts blooming. Since it is a large resort site, it blooms differently depending on the location. It feels good ♪ to rent an MTB and see the cherry blossoms while cycling. On Sunday, May 10, the "Cherry Blossom Festival" will be held at Shintoku Shrine Mountain, which is about 15 minutes by car from Bear Mountain. If you haven't seen cherry blossoms yet, how about a trip to cherry blossoms, bears, and soba noodles? [Good news for those who worked hard at GW! ] There must be many people who couldn't take a break from GW (x_x;)! So GW, thank you for your hard work. With that feeling, a 24-hour stay plan limited to May is now available! Check-in at 2pm Check-in is at 2pm, so watch bears at Bear Mountain, cycle to see the cherry blossoms, eat delicious food, relax at the hotel and get rid of GW fatigue! Click here for details

"Rainbow trout," Kumaemon said, starting to stretch. Stretch your right leg and you're ready to go. And I know that rainbow trout will be dropped from above at the pond, so I put in a "chodai" pose for the first time in a long time. I make a splash to appeal. Right next to the "chodai" pose, when I saw the joiner looking for rainbow trout with his face to secure it on his own... It seems that he caught a rainbow trout, and he is eating it in his hand! !! When I realized that I couldn't (ToT) get them to strike a pose, I put my face in the pond water and started looking for rainbow trout. Bears also learn by "looking."

I was blessed with the weather today, so I went for a walk with anticipation, "Will plum and cherry blossoms bloom soon?" The daffodils near the entrance of Sahoro Resort have opened ♪ their flowers. It was a bud until yesterday, but it's amazing that it blooms so much in one day. And the cherry blossom buds under the entrance sign have also become ♪ much plump. The plum garden of Karikatsu Kogen Park across the national highway. The white flowers of Kobushi were blooming! The plum buds still look hard... After all, we are "dumplings rather than flowers" (Fukino tou) ρ ( ゚ ゚ ゚ ) σ ( ゚ ゚ ゚ ゚ ゚ ) Sara & Moko

Golden Week has started and many customers are visiting. Thank you!! Well, a small pond in the center of Bear Point. It is a pond made by the zookeeper, but a cute customer came again this year. It is an Ezo red frog. When I look at the rocky area, I see eggs! Since it was not yesterday, did it spawn from last night to this morning? There are about 10 Ezo red frogs in the pond, and they are chirping with beautiful voices, "Coowa, coo." It is a very popular frog not only for children but also for adults. Last year, spawning was confirmed on May 2, and this year it was a day late on May 3. I'm (^^) looking forward to becoming a tadpole in the pond from now on. 【Breeding: Ito】

In the brown bear exhibition room in Bear Point, we made a diary of winter going, a DVD video related to winter stay, and a replica of the room used for winter going. As shown in the photo above, a board is attached to the lattice door so that it will not be stimulated too much even if light or humans enter or leave the animal house. The board has a window so you can observe what's going on, and the zookeeper checks the bears with a flashlight every day to see if they are sleeping and if there is ice to prevent dehydration. When I looked inside, I saw something on the sleeping straw. I'm there! !! Please come and experience winter observation with a flashlight in hand. Breeding: Miyano

At this time of year, the leaves of the trees are not yet attached, so the view is good and the panoramic scenery such as the distant mountains spreads out. As I walked along the promenade course, Lokuta appeared on my right. When you zoom in, you will find yourself sleeping comfortably with your big face (chin) resting on your forelegs. My Udemakura? (*^▽^*) When you're asleep, it's a chance time to take a closer look! Please take a look at the soles of your feet, nails, ears, and other details!

The wind has been blowing since last night. Thanks to the wind, the heat is beaten. I found one brown bear in the direction of Bear Point from the promenade! In the picture on the left, can you see where the bears are? When I zoomed in... I saw the back view. Do you understand? You may be cooling off with a large body like this. If you can spot such a brown bear, you are an expert at Bear Mountain! ☆GW weather forecast☆ (as of 5/1) Please refer to 5/2 (Sat) Sunny 17°C 5/3 (Sun) Cloudy 16°C 5/4 (Mon) Cloudy 15°C 5/5 (Tue) Cloudy then sunny 15°C 5/6 (Wed) Sunny and cloudy 15°C * Temperature is the predicted maximum temperature

When Bear Mountain opens, it will suddenly be warm today. The temperature during the day rose to 23 ° C. The snow in the park is melting steadily and clean water is flowing in the stream.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　I found Mizubasho there again this year. 　 It is a stream in front of Bear Point, right next to the bus road. The nature in the park is finally in full swing. Dipping in the cold water, Clinton blurted out, "It snowed heavily on Sunday four days ago, but suddenly it got hot."

Today Bear Mountain is open. It's been a month since I woke up from winter, but I'm still sleepy. Even though it is open, there is still snow and I am still sleepy. I'm Koji. He is 17 years old this year. I experienced winter stay three times. When I was sleeping at Bear Point, many customers could see my sleeping face. Hey crazy. But it feels good.

We will start business for 2009 from today. During the winter period, all animals were kept alive, which is the original ecology, in captivity, and spent the winter without eating food for about 100 days. After a long winter, the brown bears are still living well on Bear Mountain this season. This season, we hope that safety measures will be our top priority, and that you will not only have an emotional experience, but also that Bear Mountain will be an opportunity to think about nature conservation and coexistence with wild animals. More like Hokkaido and more like Tokachi. We look forward to seeing you there.

Bear Mountain and Sahoro Country Club (golf course) have opened ♪ from today The green season has finally begun☆ I'm happy (*^▽^*) that customers come to see us Well, in commemoration of the opening of Bear Mountain and the golf course, which got off to a spring-like start (?) One ☆ I went for a walk with MTB A plaza that entered Sahoro Resort from the national highway. Daffodils are about to bloom to welcome everyone☆ On the way to the golf course across the national highway, there was a D51, an eco-trolley, and a scenic café. We couldn't go inside, so we couldn't see what it was like. (>_<;)。 Arrived at the golf course! But I was still playing, so I went back without stopping by. The plum garden and cherry blossom trees were also "still a long way off". Sara & Moko left) When I came back from a walk, there was a tick in the upper part of Sarah's left eye (No? ゚)ノ Let's check the ticks when you come back from playing outside! Right) Moko has changed hair and has winter hair like a mohawk. 30 minutes after returning from the walk Already Zzz ... oO (Dream)

It was an open day blessed with fine weather. When I went to look for a bear on the promenade course... I immediately heard a threatening voice saying, "Gao!" !! I found two suspicious horses ☆ Will it start in wrestling? When I looked at it, nothing happened, and the other party walked away, but the remaining bear still seems to be worried about marking a nearby standing tree! Even if it is not so rough (^^;; There was a tree bark on the back. I was worried about what would happen when it snowed 4 days ago (4/25), but the bears are living well surrounded by the spring sun. Thank you <(_ _)> for your continued support of Bear Mountain this season.

The 2009 opening is finally approaching tomorrow. Today, we invited a new first-year elementary school student from Shintoku Town. Take a bear-watching bus and sneak into the brown bear forest! In the park where the snow remains, brown bears stand out, and "I was there!" and "There are also over there!" I was excited to find a brown bear. And when they got down to Bear Point, they ran all at once and got very close to the brown bear! I observed it up close, saying it was "big" and "cool". NHK Obihiro comes to cover this situation and tries to interview the children, but apparently they are all shy. Mr. Kusaka, the caster, asked a gentle question and managed to answer it. This pattern will be broadcast on the Marugoto relay in [Marugoto News Hokkaido] today. It will be broadcast in the Hokkaido area, but if you live in Hokkaido, please take a look. ■NHK Marugoto News Hokkaido between 18:20 and 18:40

Yesterday, it continued to fall all day, and about 10 cm of snow accumulated. The snow has melted in the sunlight, and the national highway and the road surface in front of the hotel are already dry. The temperature as of 16:00 is 1°C, cold. Pre-opening tomorrow! There is an invitation project for new first graders of elementary schools in Shintoku Town. Shintoku Town is inhabited by wild brown bears. Therefore, we invite you to Bear Mountain to observe brown bears up close, which are not usually encountered, to understand their ecology and behavior as much as possible, and to think about nature conservation and coexistence with wild animals. Since Bear Mountain is in its fourth year, there are new first-year students who have already come, but the zookeeper will also serve as a guide so that they can study well. This year, you will also be able to observe large footprints left on the snow.

Looking out the window, snow. According to the weather forecast, there is a lot of snow today. The maximum temperature is minus 2°C. The road surface where the car runs is only wet, but the mountains, as well as the surrounding fields and grass, are pure white. But don't worry! The weather forecast for the opening day of 4/29 is sunny and cloudy, with a maximum temperature of 13°C. (As of 4/26) Today is the expected day for the cherry blossoms in Goryokaku in Hakodate. Sahoro is... still in custody.

Bears have been staying in winter for a long time. It's been a long time since I've been out on the range. We conduct a test release before the opening so that the bears can become accustomed to it. After a long absence, the bears are rubbing their backs and seem to be busy smelling themselves. Unfortunately, I didn't have a camera with me, so I couldn't take a picture (tears), but today, right after the release, the joiner was playing with a dead tree in his arms. Carry it with your mouth and face it again even on the snow! !! They seemed to be having fun for about an hour. When the bears return to the beast house in the evening, their bodies smell like pine scents. Is it because I rubbed my back against the Ezo pine tree? ?? It smelled good. In early spring, the park is still sprouting, so it is easy to see far away. Please come and meet the healthy bears! (^▽^) / [Breeding: Ito]
