Bears are the mascot of Baylor University, and have been a part of the campus since 1917. Under the care and guidance of veterinarians, two bear sisters, Lady and Joy, reside at the habitat.
When we visited, the bears were sleeping in the shade. It was just a quick visit to see what the habitat was all about, and despite being a lot smaller and more uneventful than I thought the habitat would be, this exhibit is an integral part of the university history, so I'm sure those with ties to the university may find the habitat more interesting.
I would not go out of my way to visit, but if you're in the area and decide to visit, take a stroll around the campus as well - it's beautiful!
