Holly peeking out of her denBoth Honey and Holly emerged from their dens in the last 24 hours. Holly did hers in the wee dark hours of the morning (around 3:30 AM). Honey did hers this afternoon. We don’t know why. The 6-minute video of Honey shows her in action http://viewpure.com/2MwX3O3zXA4. This video features Holly leaving her den http://www.wildearth.tv/videomark/holly-left-her-den-12-18-14-330-am.
Honey on her walkLast evening, Duluth Channels 3 and 6 (sister stations that used the same video) did a nice 2 and a half minute newscast telling the public about the upcoming Northwoods Ecology Hall North American Bear Center expanding with Northwoods Ecology Hall. Scott did a great job on camera. This whole effort is such a good example of teams in action. The teams include top professionals and Lily Fans. Exciting.
Thank you for all you do.
