This is Lil Bit. She has an injured nose that is healing very well.
As we have stated in the past, bears have remarkable recuperative powers. She has been in a smaller cage but has now been put in this larger cage so she can have more room to move around in. She is eating well and we hope that when the nose heals, she will be able to go outside in the fresh air and sun. As we stated in the earlier post, she needs to be confined indoors so the nose can heal without any insects or flies getting to her during this healing period. She is in the cool and new cub nursery.
