@jfk4289: • Winter Births: Cubs are born during hibernation in January or February. • Massive Growth Spurt: By nursing on high-fat milk, they grow from under a pound to 15–20 pounds by the time they emerge from the den in May or June. • Distinguishing Marks: In their first year, many cubs have a distinctive white hair collar around their necks, which they lose by their second year. #kodiak #alaska #kodiakbear #adventure #photography
