At Bear Affair, held June 4, 2011, 700-pound grizzly bear brothers, Keema and Denali, show bear expert and zoo conservation partner Chris Morgan what they think of his mock campsite at Woodland Park Zoo. Morgan, the founder of Grizzly Bear Outreach Project, teamed up with Woodland Park Zoo keepers to show us exactly how much damage these giants can do to our campsites and backyards. 

Always be bear aware. If we do our part to keep attractants like garbage, birdseed and barbecues contained when camping or living in bear country, practice bear safety and give these animals plenty of space, we can help protect not just bears but people too.

And never keep marshmallows in your sleeping bag!
