Global News viewer Haley Gale sent video of something most British Columbians do not get to see.
Gale spotted a family of bears crossing the road in northern B.C. including a rare Kermode bear cub.
The video, taken on Highway 16 between Prince Rupert and Terrace, shows a black bear family, including a young spirit bear — or Kermode bear — heading into the forest.
The Kermode bear is a subspecies of black bears that appear to be white due to a gene that halts the production of melanin.
In 2006, the B.C. government named the spirit bear the official mammal of the province.
