Yellowstone Bear World, ID

Well, this is something you don’t experience every day! Bear World at Yellowstone is a private wildlife park near Yellowstone National Park in Rexburg, Idaho. It was founded in 1998, and it’s the only wildlife reserve in the area that is a drive-through.

What this means is that its visitors get to see grizzly bears, gray wolves, moose, bison, white-tailed deer, and other typical North American wildlife on the west coast in their natural habitat,…all from the safety and comfort of inside their cars. As a unique bonus, the park’s visitors can go behind the scenes to help feed the bear cubs while supervised by the park animal keepers.

There is also a famous petting zoo, which covers one acre of land, on which farm animals and birds live freely. Occasionally, visitors can participate in bottle-feeding of elk calves and deer fawns as well.
