Loved seeing all the animals. Lots of bears. Even seeing the wolf's (3) trying to start something with a bear for his carrots in front of us, which the bears out numbered them. So cool seeing them in their natural habitats.

Our family had a great experience! We went in the morning and all the animals were out and walking around. Was really cool to see all the animals up close. Our kids wanted to go back every day of our week long trip. Well worth the cost to get in! Thank you....

We visited Bear Country today after driving by it yesterday on the way to Mt Rushmore. Wasn't sure what to expect and really did not expect too much. Boy was I ever wrong. We did see tons of animals on the drive and thought well that was nice. Had no idea what was waiting for us after the drive. Toured the grounds for another almost two hours. Every worker was very friendly, knowledgeable and looking to help! Thank you for sharing with us!!!
