Another couple of pictures from my great aunt Latisha Vanderpool's photo album.
Bears Yellowstone Park Aug 1941
Feeding of the Bears 1941, On back it says Feeding of the bears and sea gulls.
This practice was stopped years ago as it was deemed to be harmful to the bears to feed them garbage. Today they let the bears fend for themselves and they are much healthier.
I remember when I was a child going to a "Bear park," in a dump while living in Upper New York State. I remember the large crowds. Bears enjoyed eating marshmellows from the crowd.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the flashback.
