The Center's electric Polaris ATV is a real workhorse. From August through April, the Center's bear-care team loads up the Polaris for daily food deliveries to the Bear Yards. During fall 2020, for example, when the Center was caring for a glut of ravenous bears, the Polaris was loaded up with about 200 pounds of food - each and every day.
The Polaris also is used in relocating crated bears and other large animals. The Center has used an electric ATV. It's a much quieter engine, and we don't want the bears to associate the sound of a gas-powered ATV with food delivery!
The Center's current Polaris has served us well but ... it's time for a replacement!
Your contribution -- of any size -- to the Bear-Mobile Fund will help us raise the money we need to purchase a new [or gently used] electric ATV for use in the care of Virginia wildlife. And any additional funds raised will help us meet the ongoing costs of caring for bears!
Take a video ride on the Polaris!
BONUS: One lucky contributor will be able to take an actual ride in this new ATV. Name to be selected at random. [If you're unable to contribute, but would still like to have your name in the drawing for this exciting ride, please email Randy Huwa at [email protected].]
