Black BEAR CUBS of 2023 are here!

With baby season in full swing, new cubs for the year are arriving! Because these babies are very energetic at this stage of their lives, it is important for our rehabilitation staff to provide them with lots of enrichment, including supervised playtime!
This is a short-lived period in their lives as for most of their time in rehabilitation, they do not interact with humans directly. They also only interact with specific human caretakers at this stage to avoid developing a
familiarity with all humans so they can thrive in the wild. Though they are very cute, make no mistake, cubs can play rough! Don't try this at home 🐻
Keep up to date with their care and progress here: www.wildlifece...

Because bear cubs are closely bonded with their sow in the wild, the young cubs are allowed interaction with a limited number of caregivers during bottle-feeding. The cubs do recognize and bond with these caregivers. Other staff, students, and volunteers are not allowed to see and interact with the bear cubs, to ensure that the bears don't get used to many different people. The number of people who care for the bears seems to be an important key to successful rehabilitation, which is why no one other than the three staff rehabilitators sees the cubs.

Che bravi magari facessero così anche in Italia

[@NikkieKnows]

OMG< I WANT THIS JOB!!!! TO PLAY WITH LITTLE CUBBIES WOULD BE A DREAM! (Maybe a scratched arm dream, but the scratches will heal.) I love it when they stand on their little hind legs. Thank gooness for Wildlife Center VA who can take great care of these precious little orphans and make sure they grow up big and strong in the wild where they belong.

AWESOME!!!

[@carolynstampley6656]

Just a question , Is there some kind of bear suit ? Why is this cub here ,is it an orphan? This is a great thing you're doing and thank you for your facility and video for people like me😊 to be able to ask questions .

[@stevelee4653]

the baby is so cute!!!

[@shosho5306]

Where is the mother bear. Why the big gloves

[@freiwildnatural6624]

Thats the wrong way to learn the cub natural fighting. The woman is to hectical an to fast with this finger plays, so the bear is on stress, then he always run from her and when he comes again the woman always put the bear withbhis shoulder to the floor, so the young one can nothing do, also to learn he is the weak one and the looser and he never learn, that was he learn in the nature with his brothers and sisters, that he can sometimes also win, because his other one are also not so strong enough to dominate all time the brother like the woman do with her play. Iam hope you understand my "english" and meaning, thats no critice,to the woman, only to her job doing, thats my critice to the zoo that her company must better educatet the trainees.
