As we have said before, at this time of year the cubs begin to feel lethargic, not eating as voraciously or quite as much as they did a few weeks ago. The lethargy shows in this photo of the Six-pack, still in “bed” (on their platform) at a later hour than usual. The desperation of hyperphagia has given way to a slowdown of metabolism and the need for more rest and sleep.
The rest of the cubs were not visible at all on this day, so we offer this photo of our Six-pack cubs, sleeping in this morning.
Perhaps we’ll have some glimpses of the other cubs in our next post.
