She mentioned she pulled over on the facet of the street on the weekend after seeing six black bear cubs and their mother hanging round an oak tree on the property.
“It is fairly superb,” she mentioned.

“Often I’ve solely seen three (collectively) earlier than.”
The bears have been very alert she mentioned and have been attempting to get down from the tree when she was there.
She’s been keeping track of issues to see if they are going to return, however no luck but. She thinks it could be attainable that they discovered the cornfield close by.
“I am assuming they are going to be again, until they discovered the cornfield. Then they is probably not,” she laughed.
She is not 100 per cent certain if all of the cubs are from the mother or if she adopted a few of them, but when they’re all siblings, she thinks it could possibly be a file.
