I remember Lucky and Holly lying close with their noses almost touching a few days ago. More recently, they couldn’t seem to find comfortable positions. Holly made a quick movement with her hind leg and Lucky left, making me wonder if space was the main issue. Today, Lucky and Holly came to the fence calmly and peacefully standing side by side. Later they both entered Den 1, leaving us wondering if they can settle down together in the space available. Holly seems to be calling the shots on whether Lucky can stay. Lucky keeps trying. They are together in Den 1 at this moment.

Again, Sharon’s Bear News from October 21 is as informational and full of great pictures as ever. https://bear.org/bear-news-october-21-2023/

With more information from feeders who know 3-year-old Fletcher well, I believe we can now say the one bear still visiting here is him. He is here now.

Red FoxRed FoxThe red fox creates excitement each day with his visits as he patiently sits knowing he has trained us in the way we should go and will get what he expects. We jump to do just that.

The two high officials from the Central American country were stimulating company today at the Bear Center. Both have been around the world, visiting with leaders of other countries and getting amazing insights into how the world works. We’re going to keep in contact and see what might be feasible. Their goal is to divert young people from gang life to a life involved in wildlife. They have already made big gains in their country and are looking for ways to go bigger. We’ll see what develops.

Thank you for all you do,
Lynn Rogers, Biologist, Wildlife Research Institute and North American Bear Center
