The secret life of Bears!

What a terrific research project. We have a neighbour with a trail cam, but he puts bait down. This one, in a park, is amazing. It seems as if its the best itch-scratching tree in the forest!
Not just bears, either!

Ever wonder what bears do when we're not looking? These bears were caught on camera in Kananaskis Country. These images were taken during May and June 2013. Wildlife cameras are part of a research project throughout Kananaskis Country.

By studying wildlife in Alberta's provincial parks, we can better identify population distribution, animal activity and key biodiversity hotspots. Learn more about human/wildlife conflict prevention at www.wildsmart.ca. For more information about our research, visit Alberta Parks
