This time the tips are from the Black Bears at the Wildlife Center of Virginia.

Since the last black bear post when there were two black bear yearlings and one cub, four more cubs have been admitted to the Wildlife Center.  Five of these seven bears will be released tomorrow. 

Safe travels to all!
