Three orphaned grizzly cubs are being cared for at the Calgary Zoo. The Calgary Zoo says the bear cubs have a greater chance of survival in human care. "Efforts are underway to find the three little bears a suitable permanent home, until then, the Calgary Zoo team will be giving them lots of love and care," the zoo said. Grizzly bears are a threatened species in Alberta. "We strongly believe that science and animal welfare best practices support these orphaned grizzly cubs going to an appropriate zoo," said the zoo in reply to a comment on Facebook suggesting the bears be returned to the wild.
