Grizzly Bears

Grouse Mountain Wildlife Refuge in Vancouver, British Columbia. A spectacular, 5-acre exhibit for two grizzly bears near the peak of Grouse Mountain.

The bears have opportunities to avoid the public, but often choose not to.

A visitor can get extremely close to the bears, but the fence is still electrified.
The bears have 5-acres to roam around in if they want to get away from the public eye.
