Three Bears

We finally moved the third bear into the room with the two other cubs. They seem to be getting along well, which is a relief.

As anyone enters the room they are initially frightened and hide in the corner. We want to make sure they keep such instincts so they can be successfully released back into the wild.

The female, who was raised by a human family for a period, eventually walks right up to the cameraman, while the two others hide in the background. We haven't given them names yet, although you are welcome to submit your suggestions as a comment.

When the bears get a little older, they will be moved into a larger enclosure located elsewhere on site, and then eventually moved in with Baloo, our resident non-releasable adult bear.
