Go into full brown bear discovery mode both at the Alaska Zoo and in the wild at McNeil River State Game Sanctuary.
Meet zoo brown bear giants Oreo and Izzy up close with a zookeeper during a 30-minute encounter. Zookeepers work with the brown bears to develop trained behaviors for their care and you can watch this training up close and behind-the-scenes. Reserve a date for this limited offer encounter. Encounters start at 9am and require advance registration online due to limited attendance of 4 total participants (minimum of 2 participants). Children must be age 9 and up to participate and must have a parent with them. All participants must be paid in advance, no add-on guests. The encounter fee also includes zoo admission for the day. Fee is $150/person plus service fees in checkout, online registration only.
In addition to registering for a zoo encounter, why not enter a raffle to see brown bears in their wild element! Enter the McNeil River special permit raffle for a chance to win two coveted Guided Viewing Permits for July 25-28th this summer, airfare between Homer/McNeil, two nights hotel in Homer and outdoor gear rentals for two courtesy of Beluga Air. Proceeds benefit the bear work of the Alaska Zoo and the International Association for Bear Research and Management as well as non-game projects within ADF&G. Learn more and enter for just $20! The raffle is open now through 11:59pm on April 7th with the winner announced on April 8th. https://www.alaskazoo.org/mcneil-bear-viewing-raffle
