Lucky Mammoth locals can catch new episodes of “The Bear Whisperer” before they air on Animal Planet! This Sunday, April 3, the Mammoth Lakes Art Center will host a special Mammoth showing of new episodes of “The Bear Whisperer,” which document Mammoth’s Wildlife Specialist Steve Searles’ work with local bears.

The showing begins at 7 p.m. and tickets are only $20. All proceeds go to support the arts at MLAC. LMNO’s Executive Producer Eric Schotz will be on hand along with Searles for a Q&A session. LMNO is the production company that worked on the show.

The shows are scheduled to air on Animal Planet April 7, 14, and 21. For more information on The Bear Whisperer, visit www.thebearwhisperer.com.
