New bear cub in town
By MATT KIELTYKA, 24 HOURS
There’s a new furry arrival at the B.C. Wildlife Park.
On May 24, the park received a call from conservation officers in Edmonton saying someone had found a four-kilogram grizzly bear wandering alone in an area called Swan Hills.
Suffering from dehydration and diarrhea, the B.C. Wildlife Park took on the task of rehabilitating the cub.
Under their care, the cub is being encouraged to eat solid foods and will be introduced to a new bear habitat when it is healthy.
