Black Bear Cub

This baby bear was quite the unusual little guy. Yesterday, he had been separated from his mom and was frantically looking for her for hours and hours. At one point, we nearly ran over him on the nearby road. We were quite happy to discover this morning that mother and baby had been reunited.

But then this evening we first saw mom come through the area all by herself, followed by baby looking for her about 20 minutes later. Once again he was frantic and calling to her. We can only hope that once again they'll reunite before something unfortunate occurs to this little guy.

What a treat to see these images, Jim. Sure glad this little
gal or guy got back with his Mother and didn't meet with disaster!

Such a cutie! I'm glad he's back with mom.

I don't know bear behavior, but perhaps this is part of the learning process. Do you think she could be nearby keeping an eye on the cub? Cute little one...I hope that it is safe.
