Cubs are Growing

Comments are off

It’s amazing how quickly our four cubs are growing.  Bear cubs do grow very quickly, and our curators estimate that these cubs weigh approximately 40-50 pounds now!  Here is a sequence of photos that shows how much they have grown.  The first photo is a good shot of the Wild Enclosure, where the cubs are living until their release into the wild.  Can you spot a cub in this photo?
