Without sight, Betty often pops up in public areas where lots of people can see and interact with the bear, such as beneath a slide in a playground or on someone’s front doorstep.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - A female black bear is attracting a crowd wherever she goes these days on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson — so much so that she’s on a first-name basis with the military community that routinely sees the bruin on base.
Bears are a popular sight on base — Wendland estimates his team handles one or two situations involving bears per day — but they always know when the bear is Betty. Wendland first noticed Betty around 2018 walking around the base with her two cubs. That’s when he first noticed she was starting to lose her eyesight.“We have to deal with her totally different than any other bear because she can’t see,” Wendland said. “So we have to get others to help us. Primarily to make sure we have traffic stopped so we don’t have her get hit by a car or have a car accident. We also have to be real careful about where we let her sleep for the day.
