Nothing To See Here Except 25 Orphaned Bear Cubs Eating Apples

The Northern Lights Wildlife Society released the short clip of their furry residents on Tuesday to thank donors who have given money or food to build a new bear enclosure. “Here’s what we do with your support,” reads the caption for a video showing 25 bear cubs blissfully chomping on donated apples. The young animals in the video are mostly twins or triplets. All of them are orphans. Day 311. When you think of beautiful things.

Multiple exposures shot in Banff, #Canada. Behind the Wall of Straw - 2/14/2016. Facebook. Lucky and the Enrichment Cube 8/25/15. Fern and male picnic together on 8-18-15The Black Bear Field Course ended today with a final lecture about black bear biology at the request of a participant who is also part of the Speakers’ Bureau and has a thirst for knowledge to share.

Wonderful, the people we meet in the courses. Then it was to the Bear Center to wind up the wonderful 4 days with the group, followed by more discussion with the staff about how to bring the Bear Center itself up to the new standard we set for ourselves in the Ecology Hall. Exciting. Our enthusiasm reflects the enthusiasm we are hearing from visitors and from organizations that want to emulate us. Encouraging. Fern and Beau - UPDATE August 26, 2015. April 19, 2013 - Lily the Black Bear with Ellie and Eli - Beary-Go-Round. Eli - Lily's male cub from 2013Today, a 2-year-old male we think is Eli showed up at the WRI.

We never got to know him well, but we remember how he and Ellie provided some of the most entertaining Den Cam video we have seen—especially their Beary-Go-Round scene (seen here). At the Bear Center, the staff released a monarch wearing a tag. We hope someone spots it far away and that it adds to our knowledge of monarch travels. On the lake at the WRI, the loon chicks are nearly the size of the adults. Bears and Loons - UPDATE August 25, 2015. Bears and Loons - UPDATE August 25, 2015. Faith, Ursula, Braveheart - UPDATE August 16, 2015. Loon spreading its wings - 8-10-15Holly dug what could be the beginnings of a den today.

That reminded me about June digging a den on July 19, 2004 where she would gave birth to Pete and George six months later. Holly with dirt on her faceFollowing last month’s low precipitation (31% below average), bear foods have declined. Looking about today, I saw a few chokecherries on a sapling a bear had pulled down. Pincherries and juneberries have passed. The raspberries I saw were shriveled. Holly, Foods, and Loons -UPDATE August 15, 2015. Bonding - UPDATE August 12, 2015.

Faith - 8/10/15Two bears I didn’t mention last night are Dot and Donna—Blackheart’s first litter back in 2000—both females.

Bonding - UPDATE August 12, 2015

As shown in The Man Who Walks With Bears film, I spent time with both of them when they were 2-3 months old. They, too, never forgot. Faith arrived with cubs - 8/10/15After not seeing 4-year-old Faith for nearly 2 years, I felt privileged to be remembered like it was yesterday.

She showed us her first litter—2 males. We remember how playful Faith was as a cub and yearling—trained by Hope. No longer. Faith Returns with Two Cubs - UPDATE August 11, 2015.
