This is one of 3 Bear cubs that visited one of the deer feeders here with their mom. This cub was on the right side of the deer feeder when mom and the other 2 cubs left.

After a while, this cub realized he was alone and began walking around looking for them. After about 10 minutes of looking around he began to get a little frantic and began crying loudly for them.

Fortunately, there was a happy ending.

Black bears are North America's most familiar and common bears. They typically live in forests and are excellent tree climbers, but are also found in mountains and swamps. Despite their name, black bears can be blue-gray or blue-black, brown, cinnamon, or even (very rarely) white.

When winter arrives, black bears spend the season dormant in their dens, feeding on body fat they have built up by eating ravenously all summer and fall. They make their dens in caves, burrows, brush piles, or other sheltered spots—sometimes even in tree holes high above the ground. Black bears den for various lengths of time governed by the diverse climates in which they live, from Canada to northern Mexico.


Female black bears give birth to two or three blind, helpless cubs in mid-winter and nurse them in the den until spring, when all emerge in search of food. The cubs will stay with their very protective mother for about two years.
