As temperatures climb during another heat wave, so does excitement over the debut for Woodland Park Zoo’s rescued brown bear cub. She’s wasting no time getting familiar with her new home in the Living Northwest Trail’s bear habitat. The curious cub has been busy roaming her home, climbing on rocks and splashing in the pool. She’ll live separately from Keema, the zoo’s 28-year-old grizzly, and the two bears will be on a rotational schedule on the public side of their habitat.
A name for the cub will be coming soon! Find the full story about her rescue and follow along for more updates at: www.zoo.org/brownbear.
And show the zoo your favorite #IAMLivingNorthwest moment! You might see your post appear on the zoo’s new screen in Living Northwest Trail and you'll also be entered to win a family six-pack of WildLanterns tickets.
How to enter: Post a photo of your time in nature (such as your favorite summer nature escape) and tell the zoo how you are Living Northwest! Use the tag and post on your preferred social media platform (Facebook, Instagram or Twitter) between now and October 31, 2022 and you'll be entered to win. Winner will be announced shortly after October 31.
