Ben was adopted from the Great American Frontier Show in April 2010. This traveling “show” was owned by a descendant of circus performers/trainers. Due to costs of care and compliance issues, owners decided to find permanent refuge for the aging animal. Ben is our largest bear, weighing between 400-450 pounds.
