"She was deceased. We didn't get out and we didn't stop, but we did try to call in and report it. It took a little bit of time."A cub named Charlie: Black bear rescued by Alberta for first time since rehab ban lifted The situation looks dire for the baby bear cubs, according to Kari Pedder, a wildlife and animal care technician at the Cochrane Ecological Institute.
If cubs need to be rehabilitated after July, the decision to rehabilitate or euthanize lies with AEP staff. The animals are usually taken to an approved wildlife veterinarian first which allows AEP staff to determine whether the bear cubs can be rehabilitated.
"They're in need of milk. They would starve and get hunted in the wild without their mom being with them.""Without being rescued, we can't really evaluate their health and what might [have] happened to them or … what could happen to them. So it's a very difficult situation for the cubs." "The Fish and Wildlife enforcement branch are the ones that will actually make the final call as to what happens to the two cubs."
