What`s better than A rattlesnake ???

Today we checked Black Bear dens and checked on mom`s health from the winter ...look what we found.

How cool is that! I'm guessing mom is not around?

Contrary to what you may think mom is very very close, tranquilized and sleeping soundly. Had a complete check up from a vet her health was perfect.When she wakes up her and her baby's will be wondering what happened but nice and cozy warm in the den.How many people in the world ever get a chance to hold a bear cub ?

Here is a couple more pictures from Thursday, can you tell my daughter is having the time of her life on Thursday?

[Clsfly]

What a great opportunity for her!

[LCBoyer]

That is so cool! Glad she can go with you

Mom had three cub`s and all 3 off them got lot`s of love Thursday as you can tell. We typically see anywhere from 1 to 5 cub`s on a den visit and we also can introduce an orphan cub to a surrogate mother if need be at that time while mom is a sleep. She will take to it like it was her own, one good thing is bears can`t count so they don`t know the difference between 1 or 5. With all the dangers of doing this job (everyone we encounter is armed with a firearm or has a knife ect ) and it really is not a good time being a Law Enforcement Officer in the country right now but this is one of fun parts of the job.

Thanks again for sharing and be careful out there. There is no respect for law officers or your elders anymore.
