Andean Bear Cub Wrestling with Mom

Our Andean bear cub is becoming quite the "pawful"! He is very playful with his mother Rio throughout the day often wrestling with her and encouraging her to play with him. Even though their play can sometimes look a little rough to us for the bears it is completely normal roughhousing behavior. Rio is always very gentle, patient and caring with her young cub! http://www.phoenixzoo.org -- Visit us! http://www.facebook.com/PhoenixZoo - Like us! http://www.twitter.com/PhoenixZoo - Follow us! http://www.instagram.com/PhoenixZoo - See fun photos from the Zoo!
