An extremely intimate filming experience for me was to crawl part ways into a black bear denand capture their very secret family life at four feet. Black bear cubs are born sometime inJanuary. Although mating occurs in June, fetal development doesn’t start till November (delayedimplantation). The cubs (she has 2) are now approximately 6-8 weeks old. /LEON LORENZRelated Posts:Siblings at playGrizzly bear encountersPortrait of a bearBear Cubs wrap up the seasonBackyard bear surprises couplePost navigationEditorial – Free contraception shows BC’s leadership on healthcareLETTER – Intelligence and MENSA
