Now that Bud Bear is able to eat again, he is enjoying his “real” food. Just see how he eats in this series of photos.

Bud is locked out, while Curator Coy prepares his breakfast. Coy is filling a Honey Log for Bud.
Bud comes in and sniffs the Honey Log. We know how much this yearling likes honey!
Surprise! He goes for the peanuts and grapes first, ignoring the Honey Log (for now).
Peanuts and grapes finished – he goes back to the Honey Log.
Coy notes that Bud ate the peanuts and grapes, then the Honey Log, and he turned over the bowl of bear diet. Choosy bear!
Bud was given a big ball to play with. He took it to bed with him.

We can see that Bud Bear is chubbifying nicely and that he is enjoying the enrichment items.
