Today was a beautiful, sunny day, but cold. Of course, cold doesn’t bother our yearling, who has a nice warm, winter coat. His day went like this –
Bud is going to his daybed for a nice morning nap.After waking up, he pondered what to do next.He headed for the Acclimation Pen, perhaps thinking of a snack.Look at those paws! They are HUGE! Bud is a big bear now!He decides to visit the resting platform. It’s good to see him in the act of climbing.We are glad to see that he is able to climb with ease.It seems that he has done all the damage to the tarp that he can. He simply sat and looked out the “window” he had made.He climbs down as easily as he climbs up. Good bear with completely healed leg!He went over to check the food wheel.Bud tried the door again and found it is still locked.He decided to leave the Acclimation Pen.Bud returned to his daybed to take a nap in the sunshine. In no time, he was asleep.Sleep well, Bud. You’ll be back in the wild before long.
It’s sad to see Bud Bear wandering about. He seems to be at loose ends as he tries to fill his hours and days. We’ll be very glad to see him released, and there’s no doubt that he will be glad, too! It won’t be as cushy a life, but it will be the life he was born into, and the life he should live. Keep in mind the fact that as “good” as his life is at ABR, it isn’t natural and the confinement is like a prison to him.
