Bear Sanctuary News from the VSWS
Winter continues here in the Northwoods with the bears remaining in hibernation.
Though the Sanctuary is still closed, preparations are already underway for the upcoming season. Last year we greeted almost 20,000 visitors who came to observe and learn about Black Bears. Thanks to all of you for YOUR interest in bears and we look forward to seeing you this season!Welcome to our New Website!
Thank you for visiting the American Bear Association website! We hope you find the site informative, fun and easy to navigate. Our website is being updated in stages and we do appreciate your patience throughout this transition. Our sincere gratitude goes out to Mark Byart, our new volunteer webmaster, for the development and implementation of this site. Many others - too many to name here - deserve our thanks and appreciation as well. A team of dedicated individuals has been, and will be, working on the site content. The volunteers, interns and staff at the ABA continually strive to improve and enhance the educational opportunities offered on-site at the Sanctuary, off-site in schools and communities throughout the world, and online. We encourage you to contact us if you have questions, comments or suggestions. Enjoy!
