Join Wildlife Biologists from the Department of Fish & Wildlife (WDFW) for an educational and entertaining slide presentation and lecture about bear habits and habitat requirements.
You will learn about human encroachment in bear habitat in the Pacific NW and see first hand how those situations are managed by WDFW.
Enforcement Officers Nick Jorg and Bruce Richards who you may have seen on Animal Planet or local television news shows will be your instructors. However, the real “stars of the show” are Mishka and Colter, Karelian Bear Dogs who are very friendly to people, but scary to bears.
At this event you will see a simulated bear capture and you will get to see the bear dogs in action!!! As an extra fun bonus, you get to play a role in scaring a bear away!! Great Fun for you...this bear will be a WDFW rep in wearing a bear skin...but the dogs will be serious!!
