American Bear Association Bear viewing is now CLOSED for the season. See you Memorial Day weekend of 2025. Black Bear Viewing at the Vince Shute Wildlife Sanctuary Many years ago a humble Minnesota logger made a decision that would greatly affect black bears and the attitudes people have towards this oftenmisunderstood animal. It was then that Vince Shute chose to stop shooting the bears that broke into his cabins.

What an incredible legacy Vince Shute has left behind! It’s inspiring to know that we can coexist peacefully with these magnificent creatures. Can’t wait for bear viewing to reopen—watching them in their natural habitat is truly a magical experience! 🐻💚
