Polk County Cubs

Comments are off

The Polk County siblings, Dandelion and Bentley Bear, are due to be released most any day now. They have become accustomed to going into the Acclimation Pen to eat, and go in and out frequently. When the TWRA officers decide it is time for them to go home they will be captured safely in the pen and immobilized for their workup. Today we have some photos of the siblings before they leave us.

Bentley and Dandelion get a drink out in their enclosure.. Dandelion has grown a lot, but is still much smaller than her brother.
From this angle, Dandelion seems to be a bigger bear with her chubbified backside as she goes after tasty insects.

The siblings have always seemed to be affectionate towards each other.

We will soon be saying goodbye to our Polk County twins. Be sure to watch for the announcement.
