June 2009
Spring has finally arrived and after many cold months we are enjoying the warms and sunshine. The past two weeks have been very busy with the first young animals arriving and efforts under way to release the 17 bears in our care from last year. In the first week of May the Queen Charlotte bear went on her way home and was successfully released. We got stuck on the Island as the ferry broke down and we could not get back for several days. We completed our Island Owl project and had some extra days to explore the surroundings.
The two Smithers Bears (Royal and Kassy) where released on June , followed by the Hazelton Bear (Buddy) on June and the 3 Terrace bears (Sam, Ace & Nellie) on June
The Grizzlies and the 4 Prince George Bears (George, Jesse, ) are set to leave on June 15th and the Williams Lake Bear (Brownie) and the 2 Kamloops region bears (Cassy & Ryan) are due to leave early July, which will complete this years release.
