Nestled in over 200 acres amidst towering pines and along rolling meadows just eight miles south of Rapid City, Bear Country U.S.A. offers visitors intimate views of most North American mammals. Visitors take a leisurely three-mile drive through numerous enclosures and encounter black bear, elk, reindeer, arctic wolves, bighorn sheep, dall sheep, gray wolves, cougars, pronghorn, mule deer and buffalo. After the drive, you cannot miss out on our Wildlife Walkway area, which exhibits over 15 different species of small North American wildlife, including our playful black bear cubs!
