She said it was cool to see animals "doing their thing" and stressed that her children were not traumatized by the incident.It was also not the first such incident at the pond, as a video posted online in 2023 showed a bear chomping on ducklings as several screaming children watched through the same windows.

According to the Woodland Park Zoo website, Juniper is an orphaned brown bear who was found roaming alone in Anchorage, Alaska, and became the zoo's darling after she was introduced to the public for the first time.
