What a Christmas gift! They are free, I pray the best for them in their beautiful home, and pray humans will be responsible and kind to them. Thank you, ABR!💖🐻🐻💖
Ach was für eine gut ausgehende Geschichte. Ich musste lachen, über den Satz...doch die Geschwister hatten einen anderen Plan...! Vielen Dank fürs aufpäppeln und die ärztliche Versorgung. Die neuen Räume sind auch sehr gut gelungen. Good luck to the bears and to you. Keep healthy..
English: From Karin~ (Oh what a story that ends well. I had to laugh at the sentence ... but the siblings had a different plan ...! Thank you very much for nurturing and the medical care. The new rooms are also very well done. Good luck to the bears and to you. Keep healthy ..)

@@JeanBrewer haha thats a good idear with the translator. Yes its sad. Kaiserslautern is so far away from where you stay. I like the stories from the bears. Hope you are healthy. Hugs to you:-) karin
I have a question - when you raise bear cubs in a sanctuary type facility where they are given everything they need in the way of food how well do they acclimate to going back. to the wild when they never knew the wild ?? Do you teach the Bears how to hunt for their own food what they should hunt for it this is what the mother bear would do but since they didn’t have a mother bear did you teach them how to get their food in the wild ??
Great question! Bears at our facility are raised in a completely hands-off way. This means that all human interaction is minimized or ceased all together. We do this to insure that they can go on and live a healthy, wild bear life, away from humans. With younger cubs this is hard to do - but as soon as they can lap from a bowl, all human contact is stopped. Bears instincts are amazing. Because of this, we don't have to "teach" them how to be a wild bear. They are already born with much of that knowledge. Some cubs come to our facility as young as four weeks old and they still learn how to forage for food, swim, and climb all on their own! So while growing up with a mother bear in the wild is definitely to their advantage, they don't necessarily NEED to be taught how to do those wild bear things. During a research study conducted in 2015-2016, 42 of our bears were radio collared at release - all of them were able to go on and find a den instinctually and successfully without ever being taught how.
@@AppBlackBearRescue Fantastic 😊 Thank you so much for answering the question that I’ve always had on my mind I won’t be worried anymore about how the bears and another wild animals get along when you release them -thank you again 😊 Have a great Christmas and a happy healthy New Year ! 😊💕
I wondered about that too, but look at cats and pigs, for example. Even though they've been bred domestically foa a 100 generations, they go feral and survive immediately and are wild within one generation.
Hello! The two sisters were released at the same time - one after another, in the same spot. However the nature of a black bear is solitary and they most likely decided to go their own ways after release. While cubs at this age would still normally be with their mother and siblings, it has been found in our research that bears released from our facility are big enough, strong enough, and healthy enough to start their independent lives a bit earlier. Therefore, they likely went their own ways in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
You guys are bear angels. Great work everyone.
Good luck out there, Birdie Sisters! May you live good, long, healthy, happy lives with a few cubs of your own along the way! 🙂👍❤🐻

That’s very true I didn’t think about that thanks for reminding me 😊
Were they released at the same time? Were they reunited when they released though?
