Our Friendly Neighbor


The most common bear in North America is the American Brown Bear. Do you know that a bear lives on our property? It sleeps during the day, and look for food during the night. In the summer time it is out looking for food and storing it in his den preparing for winter hibernation.

The brown bear is normally found from Canada to Alaska to Mexico. Since the European colonization, the population of the Black Bear went from two million to 800,000. This is because of habitat destruction and hunting.
