Elaine L:
Checked the North American Bear Centre's website this morning.  Still no news of Hope.  This is very worrisome.

susha:
Oh no.  Such concerning news!  I don't think that the Lily and Hope fans around the world could stand it if Hope was lost :'(

Kinderchick:
Read this on the daily website blog today. Sure do hope that Hope will be found, safe and sound...

"Hope is missing. When we saw only Lily and Faith last evening, it didn’t seem right, but it wasn’t the first time one of the trio was out of sight. However, our concern made us check them this morning. We found Lily and Faith but no sign of Hope. Someone saw a lone yearling at a distance, but we can think of 4 other yearlings it could be. The local bear registration station has not registered a bear since before Saturday, according to the DNR.

We’re trying not to think of the huge loss this would be to all of us and to science. We’ve jumped to conclusions before and been wrong. Earlier this year, we couldn’t get Cookie’s and Colleen’s telemetry signals from the ground or from an airplane and thought the worst until they showed up.

We’re on edge and want the relief of knowing Hope is okay. You’re all feeling the same, we’re sure.  We’re putting out feelers for more information. "

Kinderchick:
Thanks for letting me know, dodobird. :) I thought it might be Lucky, but wasn't sure. I've never seen Ted, though, except in his den in the winter. I guess these last few posts are in the wrong thread then.  ::)

dodobird:
Kinderchick, that would be Lucky - he is very playful.
I watch when I can and usually see Ted pontificating from his log - he sits facing the log and looks like he is giving a lecture - fun to watch.
