Bear Garden, Bear sanctuary in Kitaakita, Japan.
The facility houses both Asiatic black bears and brown bears in designated areas with swimming pools and climbing structures for natural behaviors.
The park started operations in 1990, developing from a small rescue center into a specialized facility dedicated to bear conservation and public education.
The location reflects the transformation of local perspectives, from the traditional Matagi hunting culture to modern wildlife preservation and education.
The park welcomes visitors from late April through early November, with entrance fees of 700 yen for adults and 200 yen for students.
During winter months, visitors can observe the bears' natural hibernation cycle, including mothers caring for their newborn cubs without eating.
