Today mom has a very telling look in her eye, she seems to know what she has to do and the look says it all; ‘it’s time son, it’s time’. Later this day I saw mom and her cub curled up together in the late spring sun amongst the grass were I saw him for the first time back in 2009. There was no indication of what was about to happen early the next day, they looked just like they had for the last two and half years – tightly bonded mother and cub, where mom would risk life and limb and do anything to protect her small charge.
