Notice: A 25-year-old male Ezo brown bear, Hinata, has passed away. They have been released since the opening on April 25th, and although they were less active than usual due to their advanced age, they remained calm. On May 10th, I had been sleeping and resting for a long time since the morning, so my appetite had decreased a little, so I stopped exhibiting from the 11th and let myself rest. From the 11th to the 13th, he didn't have much of an appetite, and although he was able to move around on his own, he moved slowly from beginning to end. Since the morning of the 14th, the patient had been lying down, not moving, and unresponsive to stimulation, and although he stood up once, he immediately fell back down, and around 3:10 pm, it was confirmed that he had stopped breathing. As a result of the autopsy, the cause of death was presumed to be a large amount of ascites due to a hole in the bladder, difficulty in breathing due to ascites compressing the diaphragm and lungs, and heart failure due to reabsorption of a large amount of toxins and potassium from ascites (urine). (As of June 3rd) (This is a guess and may change in the future) Since coming to Bear Mountain, the bears have gotten along well with the Santa twins and have always been together, and although they can be aggressive, the three bears, including the late Kouji, are actively moving around.At Bear Point, the bears showed a calm demeanor and played with Santa in front of everyone. For the past few years, we have not been able to release him and see him for a long time due to compatibility issues, but everyone has always cared for us. Thank you for supporting and loving Hinata, who has worked hard at Bear Mountain for a long time. We would like to express our deepest gratitude to all the staff. As of June 3, 2026, there are currently 10 individuals being bred at our facility.

いつもベアマウンテンを応援いただきありがとうございます。 当施設で飼育している個体の今後の展示についてお知らせいたします。 コウタ　エゾヒグマ　オス　34歳 以前より脊椎症の疑いで治療しており昨年まで投薬等で経過観察していましたが、34歳で高齢で歩行の衰えがみられ園内の起伏等で歩行が危ぶまれる事から、 2026年4月をもちましてコウタの放飼・展示は終了し獣舎にて療養に専念する事といたしました。 今後は獣舎及びサブパドックのみでの飼育に切り替え、ゆっくり療養いたします。 2026年4月24日追記 コウタは今年休養予定ですが、コウタの体調・意欲によってはリハビリの為園内放飼する予定です。 園内でご覧になった際は温かく応援お願いいたします。 ヒロタケ　エゾヒグマ　去勢オス　27歳 以前より脊椎症の疑いで治療しており昨年まで投薬等で経過観察していましたが、 今年の冬ごもり中から顕著に起立する事が難しくなっており現在移動のほとんどは前肢のみで行っています。 昨年は様子・体調とヒロタケ自身の意欲を見ながら放飼を行っていましたが、高齢である事と 現在の状態だと放飼は難しく悪化の危険性が有る為2026年4月をもちましてヒロタケの放飼・展示は終了し獣舎にて療養に専念いたします。 今後は獣舎及びサブパドックのみでの飼育に切り替え、ゆっくり療養いたします。 モコ　エゾヒグマ　オス　24歳 2019年頃より歩容不全が多々見られ、投薬などで経過観察する。 2025年夏頃より顕著に跛行・足取りに慎重さが出てくる。脊椎症・関節症の可能性が高く投薬(痛み止め等)を行う。 2025年12月　冬ごもり(絶食)開始　2月頃までワラいじりなど問題なく行う。 2026年2月後半～　位置が変わらず横臥で寝続けることが多くなる。(通常であれば寝返りやワラいじりなどで位置や体制が変わる) 3月5日　他個体に給餌しても起きてこず。(通常まだ睡眠中でもエサの匂いで起きてくる) 3月8日　起立はするが非常に動作緩慢、起立・伏臥になる際時間を要す。頭を下げたり屈む動作が辛い様子。 3月14日　起立不能になる。刺激しても唸るのみで動かず。 3月15日　麻酔・診察、褥瘡処置及び治療部屋に移動。以降しばらく寝たきり状態。 3月25日　飼育スタッフがモコが起立する夢を見る。同日朝モコの起立を確認。以降徐々に回復がみられる。 投薬の影響もありますが状態は安定してきており、現在は獣医と相談しながら治療を行っております。 脊椎症の疑いが強く現在の歩行状態では放飼できず悪化の危険があり、今後再び悪化する可能性もあります。 このまま治療・療養に専念する為2026年4月をもちましてモコの放飼・展示は終了します。 またモコの治療・療養に関しまして東洋紡エムシー様の製品ブレスエアーを使用しております。 この場を借りて深く感謝申し上げます。 2026年8月15日追記 3月に起立が確認した後から徐々に回復し、歩容状態や食欲も安定してきました。 5月頃にはリハビリの為サブパドック放飼を行いましたが安定した歩行で、普段通りの生活を送れる様になりました。 7月より獣医との相談の元リハビリの為園内放飼を行うと、大好きなミットと過ごしたり楽しそうに水浴び等していました。 しかし8月2日にロッキーと闘争が発生し外傷は有りませんがひっくり返され上に乗られてしまった結果、 痛みが再発したのか起立不能になり現在は寝たきり状態になっております。 再びモコらしい生活を送れるよう治療に専念しておりますので、皆様にはご心配をおかけしますが応援をよろしくお願いいたします。 いつも応援してくださる皆様にはご心配をおかけいたしますが、コウタ・ヒロタケ・モコの様子はSNS等にて発信いたしますので 3頭の応援をぜひよろしくお願いいたします。 2026年4月19日　サホロリゾートベアマウンテン

Ezo brown bears "Ren, 14 years old" and "Rocky, 15 years old" visited the Noboribetsu Bear Farm on November 4th! ↓Two of them on their second day here. Len (left), Rocky (right): I want a snack. We traveled by truck for two and a half hours all the way from Noboribetsu, and when we arrived at Sahoro, it was night, but both of them were calm. (Rocky was tired and depressed from the move) I thought it would take a long time to move from the cage to the room since Lela's brother is quite nervous, but Len was rather curious and moved to the room, while Rocky was a little wary but moved smoothly. After the trip, he seemed calm and rested. I'm relieved that the move was completed without any accidents. These two are very curious about their new environment! Ren in particular seemed to get used to it quickly and was busy sniffing around the chute (animal passage) and reacting to Lela and Holt through the door. They have eaten all the food and are doing well. At first, Rocky seemed to be wondering, ``Where is this...?'' but after a while, he seemed to calm down and was curious about the scent of other bears coming through the door. Rocky has a good appetite and is currently being fed 9kg of food. It all depends on how the two dogs behave in the future, but it looks like they will get used to Bear Mountain quickly. ↓Rocky and Ren are eating lots of food. They won't let me take pictures because it's so blurry. First of all, let's eat well and have a safe winter. Nice to meet you, Len, Rocky. Len Rocky's debut in the park is currently undecided. We will inform you about the debut, so please wait. Individual information - Ren, male, 14 years old (father, Mitt, twins Lela) - Rocky, male, 15 years old Currently, there are 11 animals in our facility. (Including newly imported individuals)

notice! Starting August 9th, a "Fish Present for Bears" event will be held at Bear Point in Bear Mountain! As August begins, we are fostering our enthusiasm for the bears who are experiencing their appetites as they move into winter! Period: August 9th - 17th, 10:30am at Bear Point Pond in Bear Mountain *Due to the health and condition of the bear, the event may be cancelled suddenly. *The type and size of fish vary depending on the stock situation. *The speed at which you eat fish depends on the bear. In some cases, the event will end immediately. Please come and see the bears that eat fish in a spectacular way! !

Notice: On June 1, 2025, a male brown bear, Koji (33 years old), died. Since April 4th, due to slow movements, difficulty standing, and loss of appetite, he has not been shown this season and is undergoing treatment and rest. After medication was given, I gradually became able to walk independently, and during the anesthesia examination, I had a mass removed in my abdomen and a bedsorption in my left shoulder, but by mid-May it had almost completely healed. I had a large amount of nosebleed on the morning of May 1st, and then two small amounts of nosebleeds, but since May 13th, there was no bleeding and I was under observation. Also, since mid-May, there has been a loss of appetite due to heat, so I fed as much food as possible to prevent weight loss. Although there was an uneven knuckle and appetite in my left forelimb, I was feeling calm and I was able to stand up smoothly until the day before. A magnitude 3 earthquake occurred in the evening of May 31st, and during inspection of the animal shed, he was confirmed to be resting on a prone basis, but was confirmed to have died on the morning of June 1st. The autopsy suggests that the cause of death was myocardial infarction. In addition, due to the expansion of the heart, hyperplasia of the liver and accumulation of ascites and pleural effusions were also observed. After visiting Bear Mountain with his twin Kota in April 2006, for about 19 years, he spent the rest of his life as the back leader (?) of Bear Mountain, and was a stubborn and quite quirky girl, but he has many charms, such as showing close friendships with his beloved Hirotake, and showing harsh bears that he dislikes. When I received a rest announcement in April, I would like to thank you very much for your kindness and support, including many messages of support and fruit gifts. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all of you who loved Koji. There are currently nine brown bears raised in Bear Mountain. Thank you, Koji. Addendum (June 12th) Thank you so much for all the warm messages to Koji. The Koji flower offering stand is now ready, so we have set it up. It is scheduled to be installed until the end of June. Please come and see Koji.

Notice about Koji Koji (33 years old), a male brown bear, has been sluggish and has decreased his appetite since around April, and has been temporarily unable to stand up. Currently, Koji has moved to the treatment room and is receiving intensive medication and care in consultation with the veterinarian. In addition, when an anesthesia examination was performed on April 18, a mass was found on the side of the left abdomen and a pressure ulcer on the left shoulder. The mass was immediately removed, and after changing the medication, she slowly recovered to the point where she was able to stand up and walk, and her appetite returned. However, at the age of 33, he is not able to move perfectly when walking, and when he is not feeling well, he is increasingly spending time lying down, and in order to continue intensive treatment and recuperation, we will end the exhibition in the park in April 2025 and take a break. In the future, we will post information about Koji on SNS. In addition, Kouta (33 years old) and Hirotake (26 years old) are also elderly and have trouble walking, so we plan to release them and recuperate them in the future while watching the intentions and conditions of the bears, so we ask for your understanding. April 25, 2025

Announcement On March 21, 2025, a male brown bear, Canta, died. I celebrated my birthday last month and turned 33 years old. After the winter, he was eating a lot of food to gain strength, and he had finished his food on the morning of the 21st. When I went to the animal house to check in the afternoon, it seemed that he had already passed away. As a result of the autopsy, the cause of death appears to be acute heart failure. For about 18 years since I came to Bear Mountain in 2006, I have fascinated many people and taught me a lot of things with a large body and a round and charming face and expression that have a strong presence anywhere in the large park. He was always serious about bathing, he was stubborn, he often made the new staff cry and put pressure on the bears he didn't like, but he was a child who listened to the keepers well. Last year, the exhibition was suspended due to the inability to stand up from the summer, and I lived in a veterinary house and took care of it. He destroyed the mat he had laid to prevent pressure ulcers in a few minutes, complained that he was not getting enough food, and spent the winter sleep like a canter until the end of his life. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who cared about and loved Canta, who has worked hard at Bear Mountain for many years. Currently, there are 10 bears raised at Bear Mountain. Congratulations Canta. P.S. (April 25, 2025) Thank you all for your kind words to Canta. Regarding flower donations, we will set up a flower donation stand in Bear Point. We hope you will come and meet Canta.

January 28, 2023 Siberian Husky [Sarah (14 years old)] passed away. Since it was an old dog, the condition of the body (kidneys and liver) was quite bad, and there were tumors in the internal organs, but he was working hard to treat and care for him. For about two months after Moko passed away, Sarah worked very hard. On the 27th, he walked to the animal house, had customers take pictures, and did a solid job of the sign dog until the end. By the morning of the 28th, he had already passed away and was sleeping with a very peaceful face. The thought of Moko and Sarah running around together by now makes me feel very happy. We are very grateful that everyone has loved us for a long time as the signature dog of Sahoro Resort. It makes me sad, but I hope you will remember Sara and Moko when you come to Sahoro. Thank you very much. Breeding

Happy New Year! We are grateful for the many people who came to 2022. We look forward to your continued support of Bear Mountain in 2023. All the breeders okay. The winter tour is about to begin!!!

Mid-November... Snow has also begun to fall! The bears have eaten, exercised, and slept a lot! From the 16th, the amount of feeding is gradually reduced, and from the 19th it is reduced to 1/3. And tomorrow, the 22nd, will be the first fasting day. That said... On the 23rd, give 1/3 of the amount, set a fasting day the next day, and gradually get used to fasting. In conjunction with fasting days, the release of the paddock (playground) will end today. Gradually, we are getting ready for winter!!! A few days left...

October 24, 2022 Siberian Husky [Moko (14 years old)] passed away. As an old dog, he suffered from deteriorating heart function and back pain, but he continued to treat it with all his might. On the evening of the 24th, I took him to the hospital, but he had a heart attack that same day, which was a disappointing result. Moko and Sarah were very active as Bear Mountain's signature dogs. I am very grateful to everyone for their love. We apologize for the delay in reporting. As for Sarah, like Moko, she is an old dog and goes to the hospital for treatment. Moko is suddenly gone, and I think it is quite a burden, so all the keepers would like to take good care of Sarah. Bear Mountain keepers
