Blue Bears in Alaska?

Yes, BEARS, so no naughty jokes. [sub](Ok, maybe a few.)[/sub]

I was asked if I had ever heard of a small population of blue bears living somewhere in Alaska. I thought he meant the Kermode bears in BC, but he’s insisting these are a different group.

So has anyone ever heard of them? A Google search yielded nothing for me.

Added to my wish list! Thanks for the info. I learned something new today!

I also found a picture here. I didn’t know there was an Alaska Zoo, so I’ll have to check that out next time I’m up there. :smiley:
