点评:We had an amazing experience and saw 3 different bears. The hides were impressive and didn't seem to bother the animals at all. ours was sunken so we could see the bears at eye level. The guy put out some food to attract the bears. Tbh I didn't know what is best practice and if this is considered okay by conservationists.
We stayed overnight in our hide which allowed us to see some night time activity including a badger and fox cub. There were lights, a compost toilet, sleeping bags, but otherwise what you would expect from a hide.
I would warn though, it isn't worth paying extra for the "no glass experience". It wasn't clear what it entailed when we signed up. It basically just means they open a window and put a piece of fabric over with a hole for a camera lense. We had to close ours anyway due to a heavy storm but still had to pay the somewhat higher price since the first bear came pre-storm. Unless you are a professional photographer it really isn't something worth paying for. This dampened the experience a little but it was still an amazing time!
翻译:我们这次体验非常棒,看到了三只不同的熊。观熊小屋很棒,而且似乎完全没有打扰到动物。我们的小屋是下沉式的,所以我们可以平视熊。工作人员放了一些食物来吸引熊。说实话,我当时并不知道这种做法是否符合规范,也不知道环保人士是否认可。
我们在小屋里过夜,因此有机会观察到一些夜间活动,包括一只獾和一只狐狸幼崽。小屋里有照明灯、堆肥厕所、睡袋,除此之外,其他设施都和一般观熊小屋差不多。
不过我要提醒大家,额外付费体验“无玻璃观熊”并不值得。报名的时候并没有明确说明具体内容。实际上,它只是打开一扇窗户,然后用一块布盖住,布上留一个洞用来放置相机镜头。由于暴风雨,我们不得不关上窗户,但因为第一只熊是在暴风雨前出现的,所以我们仍然支付了略高的价格。除非你是专业摄影师,否则真的不值得为此付费。这稍微影响了体验,但仍然是一段美好的时光!
