Nakina, along with her brother Kabul, were relocated from Alaska to the GWDC in 1998 after their parents were killed by a resident near the community of Delta Junction, Alaska.<\/p>\n<p>There are five other bears at the Center. The bears have a large outdoor habitat that includes many natural features that gives them a comfortable and stimulating environment to roam in. The animal care staff rotates a combination of bears into the habitat throughout the day. Keepers also hide food in the habitat, stock the pond with live trout and rearrange features regularly.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15439\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15439\" style=\"width: 1125px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/01262020-grizzly-and-wolf-discovery-center-039-edit.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"15439\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/2020\/01\/nakina\/nakina-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/01262020-grizzly-and-wolf-discovery-center-039-edit.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1125,1500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Terry B.
