The Baby Bear Photo Gallery

Kindred Spirits is the only facility in the entire state licensed to rehabilitate black bear cubs for return to the wild. It is quite an honor. Black bears are amazing creatures...shy, smart, playful, and fascinating. They are also very photogenic, as these pictures prove. These are but a few of the cubs we've been privileged to care for these many years.
