Info from Licensor: "A couple of rare Syrian bear cubs visited an educational summer camp at Spartanburg Day School in Spartanburg, SC. They discovered the playground and began to climb the structure. Soon they were on the slide and wanted to get on it repeatedly and slide down for fun. The children (and adults) were delighted to see them having so much fun.
These two four-month-old cubs are the 2021 offspring in a breeding program that spans 40 years. Syrian bears are a sub-species of brown bear that has been extinct in the wild for over 50 years. The only specimens left in the world are being raised and protected in a captive environment."
