As of October 22, this season's business has ended ❗. Thank you very much ❗ for your many visits. From now on, the brown bears of Bear Mountain will be 💤 preparing for winter. We are also planning to hold tours to observe brown bears sleeping in the animal house during winter, so please ❗ join us. After summer, We will 🐻 upload photos and videos of brown bears that the keepers have taken because the frequency of posting has decreased. This is where Ataro is making a bed in the park. In fact, wild brown bears collect leaves in their burrows like this to make beds during winter~! !!

At this time of year, watermelons 🍉 are still delicious ❗, and bear bears love it, and some bears eat their skins, while others ❗ leave only their skins.

Special seats! When I suddenly looked at the mitts while patrolling the park in a jeep ... Hmm? That? Isn't it sitting on a rock! Doya! I was looking at this with a feeling.

Returning home! The bears on Bear Mountain return to their homes (animal houses) when business ends, but when it is around 16 o'clock to see if their biological clock works, the bears come home by themselves! This photo shows the bears waiting at the entrance while the person in charge of the animal house is preparing in a hurry.

Kouji: The mating season is almost over, and the bears that used to be in groups have started to act alone. Kouji has been stalked by Santa for over two months. Santa is also starting to act alone. Kouji seems more relaxed when Santa isn't around.

We've had a lot of hot days lately, so I'd like to talk about the colder months. At Bear Mountain, we artificially ``winter'' the brown bears in an animal enclosure in order to make them live more like wild bears. The brown bears have woken up from winter hibernation and seem to have refreshed their minds and bodies, and their fur is in great condition! During the winter, our brown bears are sleeping, so Bear Mountain itself is closed... In fact, starting last season, we have started a tour to observe the bears in winter! Why not take a look at the mysterious brown bear's winter retreat? Brown bear winter observation tour Period: Early January to late February Time: 10:30-, 13:30- Duration: Approximately 1.5 hours Price: 4,320 yen per person Reservation: Until 4:00 pm the day before Notes: 2 to 4 people, elementary school students and above

Mitt taking a bath The hot days continue! I feel like the bears can't do anything unless they're in the water. Actually this image. The ``guy'' who loves Mitt is also looking at us...

Kumaemon The most handsome of the bears. It's supposed to be... but I can't seem to get him to look at the camera. It was hot and his mouth was open and his tongue was sticking out a little, so he didn't look handsome at all.

On the other hand... isn't it hot? It's been a hot day, and the bears were tired too... even though they were taking a dip in a puddle to cool off. It's hot just looking at it.
