Mn Black Bears Lily, Faith, & Jewel - Shadow's Clan
QuoinMonkey has followed Lily's journey since January 2010. She drove to Ely, MN July 2010 & 2011 to visit the NABC, meet biologists Lynn Rogers & Sue Mansfield, & photograph the Black Bears. She will be returning for the Third Annual LilyPad Picnic, July 20th thru 22nd, 2012.
Sadly, the world lost Hope & Jason in 2011. Follow the ups and downs of Lily and her cubs in updates on the post above. To witness the possible birth of black bear cubs in January 2012, check out the Live DenCam links below!
