Question

bear cub school
the crew at the wildlife center came up with a creative plan to feed and care for the bear cub. first, they wanted to surround him with the sights, sensations, and smells of his own kind, so they dressed the part. whenever it was time for his feeding, they donned bear masks, gloves, and shoe coverings. they put on long, furry, black coats infused with the scent of black bears. to the crew’s relief, the hungry cub fed heartily on a nourishing formula similar to bear’s milk.
after 30 days of care, the cub had gained weight and strength and was eager to explore his surroundings. to continue his development, the crew turned his space into a classroom to help him learn bear cub behavior. logs and branches were installed so he could learn to scramble around and climb. dirt and leaves were spread on the floor for him to sniff out and snack on, and acorns that the staff hid for him to claw through in search of bugs, worms, and acorns.
