WAY to GO!! – to ALL who saved the cubs! What a wonderful story!
The picture of the little cub looking up at his rescuer looks like he is saying “Thank You” to him!!
Just wish I could have been there to see them for myself – so cute!

I WAS COMING DOWN 29 LATE WED NIGHT WHEN I SAW THE MOTHER,I
STOPPED BUT DID NOT GET OUT. I WENT STRAIGHT HOME TOLD MY DAD
ABOUT THE BEAR. HE COULD NOT GET ANY SLEEP THINKING ABOUT THE
BEAR AND SHE COULD POSSIBLY HAVE LITTLE ONES.SO HE LEFT EARLY
THURSDAY MORNING IN THE DARK AND WENT UP TO THE BEAR AND
HE DISCOVERED 2 BABIES COMING TOWARD HIM. HE THEN PICKED THEM
UP PLAYED WITH THE BABIES FOR A WHILE AND CALLED 911. THANKS DAD
I ALWAYS KNEW THAT YOU HAD A BIG KIND HEART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
