Bear Encounters
Are you ready to get a little closer to our three bears? Come join Sadie, Kenai and Haines - the stars of our Russia’s Grizzly Coast exhibit during this interactive education program at the Minnesota Zoo!
Dates:
September 25 or September 26
October 2
During your two-hour adventure you will learn about our three bears, their personalities and what makes them special. You will have the opportunity to tour behind-the-scenes to see the kitchen where the bears’ meals are prepared daily. Next, you will go to the training window with one of our bear trainers for a truly unique introduction to Sadie, Haines and/or Kenai. Enrichment is an important part of our bears’ lives and you will experience this first-hand as you give our bears their enrichment items for the day. You will receive a commemorative picture of your encounter, as well as a one of a kind piece of art work created for you by one of our bears. Our bears can’t wait to meet you!
