Bear Cubs Found in Massachusetts Den

Wildlife biologist Dave Wattles and his team recently discovered three tiny cubs in a Massachusetts bear den, highlighting the states thriving black bear population. The cubs, dependent on their mother for survival, were found near the Interstate four ninety-five corridor, where bears have been spreading for decades. The researchers also noted the mother bears frequent crossings of the Massachusetts Turnpike, a leading cause of bear deaths. Officials advise people to avoid feeding birds if bears are present to prevent conflicts over food.
