Double trouble 🐻🤎

First-time mama Shala welcomed two sloth bear cubs in early December, and after several weeks bonding in their private den, the shaggy-haired sweethearts are making their debut. Guests may be able to spot the teeny duo adventuring about, or even hitching a ride on mama bear’s back. 

As a vulnerable species, these precious little ones play a critical role in helping conservationists learn more about sloth bear ecology as we work alongside partners in India to help protect this species in their native habitat.
