Discovery LocationCanadian Rockies

Lead ResearcherRanger Smith

Field Report Summary

A keystone pollinator of the giant Sequoia forests, the Bumblebear is the only ursine known to produce its own honey. Its wings, though seemingly undersized, beat at a frequency that allows for short bursts of levitation to reach high branches. They hibernate in massive hexagonal caves, storing provisions for the winter in comb-like structures made of wax and mud.
