About Bert

Buffalo Bert is the official prognosticating groundhog for the city of Buffalo, New York, residing at the Hawk Creek Wildlife Refuge. Bert is the world’s most accurate weather prognosticator with a 100% accurate prediction rate. He was rescued as an orphan and now embraces serving the public. “Bert is a survivor, and was rescued for a reason,” says Tanya Lowe, Director of Wildlife Education, “Now he’s a Buffalo ambassador.” Like the fine citizens of Buffalo, Bert fears no weather and has never met a party he didn’t like.
