I immediately fell in love with this magnificent giant. There was something incredibly powerful yet gentle about watching him, and I became fascinated by the thought that bears once roamed freely across the Irish landscape. The Eurasian brown bear was once native to Ireland, disappearing from the island thousands of years ago.
