    It's rare to have 4 cubs. I've never seen 5 cubs before with one mother. The cubs all look about the same size so I guess they all belong to the one mama. Good job mama bear all your babies look strong and healthy!

    I love how this mamma bear passes garbage cans moves on, sniffs air, then backtracks, takes out the goods and her little babes get some munchies. "This is where you can get food babies-learn!!!" I love the bears you all have there. Glad they were able to get her to take in the 2 cubs from another bear-5 is a lot. Hope they all made it... I watch Patrick Conley's bears but it seems you got to see mamma Simone with her four cubs before he did this year(I saw another video of yours with Simone and her 4 cubs this year 2023).... Can't believe she had four this time but she is a good mamma. Glad you caught this on video, thanks.

  • @wisdomoftheearlychristians2037

    I was waiting for this! I live in bear country and I filmed a mother and 5 cubs right behind my back door. Watching the cubs play is like a comedy routine. They tumble over each other, play leap frog, etc. I was like, " Wait, what?" when they walked past that trash can. I'm not interested in trash, said no bear, ever! Those people ought to know better. A garbage bag is just a sack lunch for a bear. They've developed the art of swinging a bag over their shoulder well, considering there are no bags in the wild. I've seen them do it many times.

    about reached their goal. (-; They look very healthy. I have seen Mom's with 5 cubs a couple times.
