The cubs are doing well, gaining weight and being raised by their mother under the observation of staff. 

Those wanting to see the cubs in person will have to wait until the spring of 2012. 

“It’s important to allow the cubs to grow and mature before exposing them to the outdoor exhibit,” said Moran. 

The Zoo will provide regular updates on the progress of the cubs throughout the fall and winter.
