Bay Beach Bernard

About Bernard

Bay Beach Bernard is the official prognosticator and groundhog ambassador for the Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary in northeast Wisconsin. Tragically hit by a car at a young age, Bernard takes it easy in between performing his duties as public figure. He is often seen wrapped in luxurious fabrics, he is an accomplished painter, and he maintains a healthy diet of corn-on-the-cob and bananas. Unique amongst groundhogs, Bernard makes his yearly predictions from an Ice Desk. Maybe it keeps the swelling down on his injured leg, or maybe he just likes having a very cool desk.
