This place needs to be shut down. It is horrible the way these bears live in a concrete pit. Cherokee needs to spend some of that casino money to build a appropriate habit for the bears and improve Cherokee in it's self it looks just like it did back in 1980. I would not go on a family vacation in Cherokee much less go see the pitiful bears.
Really have a lot of beats and they sale good to feed them
I read a story out of the charlotte area news saying that these bears were abused, starving, and begging for food. The bears looked very well fed, granted their habitats could be considerably better. The baby bear handler treated the cub with respect and had us wait because she didn't want to come out of her habitat for the picture at that moment. We bought lots of extra food in hopes to help support updates. Down the stairs they have lemurs, some monkeys and goats.
We love coming to Cherokee just to see the bears here. The goats and monkeys are funny too.
This place does not need to be shut down! Animals are well taken care of.
Tip: this place is cash only, however atm is on site.
