Awesome photographing in Orr Minnesota last week. These bears are not in an enclosure of any type, they are not tame, and no they don't do tricks.
I had to show up very very early and attend "Bear Camp" for a couple hours with a supervisor where they teach you all about what to do and how to do it ( don't look them in the eyres, NEVER turn your back, Never run away, speak very softly to them, stay tem feet away, yada, yada, yada, and then they will leave you alone and let you photograph the rest of the day if you seem OK.
They sell tickets between 5 and 8 PM and only allow those people way up on the overhead deck. No tripods.
