SUMMARY:Bear in Mind: The Story of the California Grizzly
DESCRIPTION:Bear In Mind: The Story of the California Grizzly uses striking images\, informative text\, memorabilia\, a variety of historical and scientific objects\, and hands-on activities to engage visitors of all ages. \nOver the centuries\, the relationship that Californians have had with the bear is one of dualities – expressed in fear and fascination. Although extinct in the state\, the grizzly is a central character in California’s history. “Bear In Mind” is an exhibition that tells the compelling story of one of California’s most beloved and feared animals. Exhibit themes include: The Loss of Grizzlies\, The Truth about\nGrizzlies\, and Bears in our Imagination. \nBear In Mind includes a section created especially for children with a simulated bear den\, colorful books and puppets\, and special text panels to help children understand the story of the California Grizzly and American Black Bear. Interactives include a map showing a timeline of the grizzlies’ demise; an activity comparing and contrasting grizzly size\, scat\, and paws; a bear image sorting game; and an animal track activity.
