Black Bears - Minnesota / Lily
Kinderchick:
Lily & Hope are "out and about" right now! :D Hope keeps playing with the tube that houses the camera and keeps licking the camera lens. Consequently, the webcam view is occasionally blurry. ::) :P
Kinderchick:
Temperatures were quite mild in Ely, Minnesota yesterday, so the whole bear family, including the cubs, spent some time playing outside the den. :)
Kinderchick:
Lily & Hope have begun to venture out from their den in the past few days, as did one of the new cubs yesterday. :o Both Lily & Hope are wandering around outside their den right now! 8)
Kinderchick:
Thank you once again, to all those who signed the online petition to protect these radio-collared research bears. As of yesterday afternoon, when the petition was closed to signatures, there were 27,000 signatures from around the world. :D
Kinderchick:
Thank you to all those who took the time to sign the online petition to protect radio-collared bears in Ely, Minnesota. It would, indeed, be a very sad day for school children world-wide, including the Kinderchicklets here in Winnipeg, should anything happen to Lily & Hope and Ted & Lucky, during hunting season! :'(
The online petition “PROTECT Radio-collared Bears in Minnesota” continues to climb—13,879 signatures from at least 132 countries at this moment. The comment from signer # 7835 was from noted bear biologist Dr. Steve Stringham of Alaska, saying, “As development pressures degrade or destroy more and more bear habitat, and lessen the ability of bears to withstand other human impacts, our ability to sustain healthy bear populations will depend on an ever-improving understanding of bear population ecology and behavior.”
