ABR cub moving to NC

Comments are off

One of the ABR cubs, a female from Tennessee, will be moving to the Museum of Life + Science in Durham, NC this month.  She was so young and small when she arrived at ABR that she required more special handling than usual, and as a result became too habituated to be released into the wild.  Fortunately the Durham museum, which has a live bear display, had room for her.  She will join Mimi, another ABR bear that was unreleasable a few years ago.   The Museum of Life+ Science is excited about her arrival, as shown in this blog post, which includes photos of her as she looked when first at ABR and now, as a beautiful 75-pound bear.
