Why are there no bears?

Eastern National announces the release of “Why Are There No Bears In Rock Creek Park?” The book’s title and the story that follows was prompted by Rock Creek Park’s many young visitors, who upon visiting the 2,000-acre forest and seeing its many animals, often ask park rangers why they haven’t seen any bears.

“Why Are There No Bears In Rock Creek Park?” is available at the Rock Creek Park Nature Center and Planetarium located at 5200 Glover Road NW, Washington, DC 20015, near the intersection of Military Road and Glover Road and at the Old Stone House located at 3051 M Street in Georgetown and soon at www.eParks.com the online bookstore of America’s National Parks operated by Eastern National.
