The Grizzly Berry Bar, which supports bears at the Oakland Zoo, replicates the historical diet of California grizzlies.
“Gone are the days of pink popcorn and things our grandparents would expect when coming to the zoo,” said the zoo’s CEO Nik Dehejia. “We now have a much more elevated food program.”
The Oakland Zoo and Berkeley’s TCHO Chocolate have collaborated on a chocolate, the Grizzly Berry Bar, that replicates the berries that grizzly bears historically ate in California. Part of the proceeds go to the zoo’s grizzly exhibit. You won’t find wild grizzlies in California anymore, thanks to us pesky humans. But when they did roam the land, they loved to eat berries – thus the dark chocolate’s inclusion of freeze-dried, Pacific Northwest blackberries and blueberries. And if you actually munch on one while at the zoo, it’s possible one of the bears sticking its nose into the wind might be vicariously enjoying it, too.. “They’re going to be able to smell it a couple of miles away.
