Black bear cubs are born in the early spring in the hibernation den. Black bear mothers feed the cubs from her breast. They will continue to feed from their mother until they adapt to a diet of all solid food. At that time they will eat foods that their mother finds and shows them to eat, including berries, most fruits, vegetation and some fish.
For the first several months after birth, bear cubs don't leave their den. Once spring arrives, the family will leave and not return. Bears are most active during the dawn and dusk times, and baby bears are with their mother, so they are also active then.
they usually stay in the den with their mothers from february to april, then remain with their moms for the next two and a half years, nursing.
