When travelling in the USA, wildlife sightings add an exciting and beautiful wilderness experience. Bears roam many areas of the US and should always be a consideration, especially when travelling in the more remote regions. We recommend that you take the time to seek advice when you arrive at your destination whether from the information centres or from a local guide. To prevent your sighting from becoming an encounter, never feed animals and always keep your distance from wildlife.
