POLAR BEAR PERSONALITIES - FULL
The Zoos own research scientist, Dr. David Shepherdson, has traveled throughout North America studying polar bears in zoos. One major question is: Why do polar bears pace? Learn why the roof has been taken off the bears indoor exhibit. Find out more about this magnificent creature and how zoos are working to create the best possible environments for them. A behind the scenes tour of our polar bear exhibit is included.

Want more programs? Breakfast with the Beasts is available too.
