Our Big Bear Family

S1, E1: Jim and Susan Kowalczik look after a 9ft, 1400lb Kodiak brown bear at their orphanage, where they have dedicated their lives to rescuing and releasing injured animals. They care for 11 bears, including Kodiak brown bears, Syrian bears and black bears on their 100-acre estate in Otisville, New York. Most were rescued as cubs from breeding programs or nature reserves that closed down.
