LOVE FOR ALL BEARS
by Jason Carne
Check out these un-BEAR-ably cute cubs which are recovering after being cruelly dumped at a roadside in South Carolina. Little Bennie and Jerry were rescued by a passing firefighter who originally thought they were puppies. Along with a female cub, they sat whining inside their cardboard box at Long Creek until the good Samaritan came to their aid. The female cub was sent to a facility in Charleston, and the two males were sent to Appalachian Bear Rescue in Tennessee where staff are hand feeding them before releasing them into the wild.

I love this video on Facebook of Molly the bear enjoying her carrots.

Here are all eight species of bear. Spectacled Bear, Polar Bear, Moon (or Asiatic Black) Bear, Brown Bear, Sloth Bear, Sun Bear, American Black Bear, and the Giant Panda.

The Bear Trust website is great and features facts about each species. Click on the species of bear you’d like to know more about and the link shall direct you to the relevant page.
