Update on our bear cubs - April 22, 2012
 With all 16 bears awake and causing mischief it was time to give them their pools again. Rascal, Kody, Karsten, Keeton, and Shade immediately jumped into their pool and started playing. They love it best when we are filling up the pool, as the hose sprays water down from the roof.
Apples spent a lot of time standing on the edge of the pool swatting and trying to catch the stream of water as it filled the pool. Jeanette, Kira, and Max each took turns standing on the rim of the pool and splashing the water with a paw. When the pools are filled it keeps the bears busy for hours, which means they won’t be creating destruction in their wake!
 Lots of spring foods are growing around the centre, and we gather the foods for the bears to eat. Charlie and Corky especially love to munch on the fresh grasses. This week we were also able to get them some large decaying logs. The bears spent hours shredding the logs to get at the yummy grubs inside.
Even though it is still early, we are already making plans for bear releases. A lot of work goes into releasing the bears, and with 16 bears to be released there are many plans to make.
