A Rare Glimpse at Recovery: Northern Spain's Brown Bears Make a Comeback The Cantabrian brown bear has been on life support for decades, but conservation efforts have finally injected new life into this subspecies.
In northern Spain's Asturias region, nature tourism is now allowing visitors to catch a glimpse of these majestic creatures in their natural habitat.
