first touch of grass

Little Sa and Dung (pronounced Zung), Wayne and Peter got to run outside and roll in grass and dig dirt for the first time in their young lives today.... well first time since their mums were killed by poachers when they were tiny cubs.... about 10 months old now - rescued being smuggled across the border from cambodia to bear bile farms here in vietnam .... we opened our new cub house today - cubs and young bears will be discovering the outside world over the next week or so.... exciting time for all of us
the cubs were just a blur of motion most of the time - running like puppies with their back halves somehow going faster than the front.... hoping to spend more time with the camera tomorrow - today was my own sort of blur....
