Last year i had the pleasure of visiting the N.A.B.C, It was a wonderful experience, the staff were more than helpful, so much to do and see, its not until you go there you realise how much you dont know about bears ! I learnt so much! seeing the 3 captive bears was the highlight for me, they have a wonderful natural area in which to forage like wild bears and a lovely pond too. I cant praise this organisation enough and i hope they get more visitors to learn about the wonderful Black Bear . I will be going back again this year! I live in the UK and it is worth the trip on so many levels, thank you Dr Lynn Rogers and his Biologist Sue Mansfield for giving me the chance to learn !

I have nothing but respect for Dr Rogers and Sue Mansfield! They have taught me so much about the North American Black Bear!, Their website Bear.Org is the most comprehensive website i have come across where the Black Bear is concerned. They are both kind and generous with their time, always ready to answer questions! All i can do is thank them from the bottom of my heart !
