Hibernating Spirit Bear, Apollo, Wakes Up!

Apollo, the Hibernating Kermode White Spirit Bear, has been sleeping for months, now he's waking up! Taken just days before he leaves his winter den, see this rare insight into late hibernation behavior. Watch Apollo stretch out, scratch, yawn, daily ablutions and sweet poses!
Warning, do not ever approach a wild bear, and never, ever feed one.

It is our pleasure to share Apollo with you all.

He left the den yesterday, then came back in the night

and now he's out foraging again, hope he comes back!

I'll be adding many Apollo videos over the next few weeks, enjoy! :-)

Apollo, you are so beautiful!! You look sooo-oo tired; bet you'd love to sleep awhile longer. Honey, you don't have to go to school or to work; stay nice and cozy in your den, darling. I LOVE you!
