A trio of sibling black bear cubs are in the care of the North Island Wildlife Recovery Centre (NIWRC) in Errington after they were found without their mother.
Last week, the BC Conservation Officer Service found them alone on the South Island and are unsure what happened to their mother.They were brought to NIWRC on Friday, weighing nine to 10 kilograms, and are considered to be in good health."Lucky that we got them when we did, you don't want to see them when they are really really small," says Derek Downes, animal care supervisor at NIWRC.
"It can be a lot harder transition for them because they're going to have to transition from being out in the wild to now in a captive setting where they're going to be raised," Downes adds.This is the first batch of cubs the centre has gotten this year, and received them just days after they released four bears back into the wild.
