Sleeping in Daybeds

Comments are off

Although the cubs often sleep on the sleeping platforms in their enclosures, they also make daybeds the way bears in the wild do. Here are the cubs in Wild Enclosure #2 and the daybed they made.

Dandelion and Boudreaux started the trend on this night.
Soon, more of the cubs joined in.
Bentley and Marigold got tangled up.
It was quite a pile of cubs!

After a while, everyone went to sleep. G’night cubs!
At midnight, all of them got up to forage for a midnight snack or two.
At dawn they were resting before eating some more. This is what hyperphagia means – eating and more eating.

Here is there daybed in the light of day. Beary comfortable, we’re sure!

A bed of branches and sticks might not appeal to us, but the cubs like it just fine.
