Bears. Bears. Bears!!

Alaska is known for it's vast wildlife.  While I have wanted to see the various creatures, I have been quite nervous about encountering them in the wild!  When I visited during my house hunting trip in May, I saw two wild moose.  I guess fortunately, I have not seen any since actually moving here.  There was a black bear warning at work a couple of weeks ago, but again I did not see it.

I did want to see the animals the area is known for....so I headed to the zoo!  The Alaska Zoo is fairly small, but has some great exhibits!  So many animals I have never seen that close up.














I do plan to do some more hiking and biking in the near future, so just in case.... : )
