Otto walks around the edge of the pool. Bears drink lots of water during hyperphagia.

That’s enough. Up the tree they go to take a nap.

How relaxed and comfortable can a cub be?

Apollo was eating his food and moving around in his pen.

Apollo is eating well.

Curator David saw him interacting with Charley Bear.  This was the first time he was observed actually interacting.  David snapped a photo, but it’s a bit blurry.

Apollo

This blurry image shows Apollo interacting with the stuffed Charley Bear.

The fact that Apollo interacted with his stuffed companion was good in the he is becoming more alert and interested in his surroundings.  This is progress.
