This promotes a feeling of security for the bears. The Grizzly Discovery Center currently cares for eight bears who have been rescued over the past six years. The center offers these wild bears a second chance to live happy, active, and diverse lives in captivity. The bears rotate between their denning building and the habitat area during the day. With random play partners, random times out, and various other environmental and behavioral enrichments, the lives of the bears at the center are enhanced.
Visitors see the bears roll, wrestle, mock-fight, forage, and play throughout the day.
Toby Born in captivity in February 1990, he's a Kodiak brown bear, the largest of the three brown bear sub-species to which grizzlies belong. Toby loves to topple trees and impress the visitors. These twin brothers from British Colombia were born in 1995. The two were orphaned when their mother was killed in defense of property in Canada. Revel's lighter color distinguishes him from his darker sibling.
