To help people really appreciate, understand and know what to do when it comes to bears, the park has embarked on this aggressive educational campaign 'BACK THE B.E.A.R.S. "I'm amazed at this highly adaptable and intelligent animal and I'm continually learning more and more about bear behavior. Jenny Beeler, the park's Resource Management Specialist, promotes this event as "one stop bear fact shopping" where visitors will have numerous opportunities to connect with black bear experts and learn how "we can all live together, avoid bear-people interactions and enjoy this symbol of the forest." Beeler admits that there is much to learn when it comes to bear facts. Which is exactly why all should attend the April 24th and 25th" Back the B.E.A.R.S." being held at Cumberland Gap National Historical Park. Spring arrival has brought with it the brilliant purple blooms of the redbuds, the enchanting red and yellow flowers of the wild columbine, the sweet aroma of the lily of the valley, the return of the scarlet tanager with its charming red and black hues….and hungry black bears. Educational Event to Include Hands-On Activities, Exhibits and Renowned Speakers
