3 августа 2022
Berezinski Biosphere Reserve offers its visitors to take a tour "Bear Nook" and see bears in their natural environment

The best "bear time" starts in the reserve in the period when individual bears and whole families of bears and their cubs enter the specially sown oats field. Though one of the most dangerous domestic predators prefers meat food, but to get fish or elk and wild boar is not so easy even for this strong animals. So, they willingly switch to plant food. Young, milky, juicy oats are among their favorite dainties. In the Berezinski Nature Reserve a large plot of land is reserved for this crop. It is intended first of all for brown bears, but other forest inhabitants also come to enjoy juicy shoots. 

Tourists can watch bears in their natural habitat safely from the "guardhouse", a small house on high stilts, right in the heart of the territory. Belarusians and guests from abroad can take photos or shoot videos of such a relatively close encounter with a bear.
