Ranger Mike answers some viewer questions about the bears:
Riverrock's question - Are you surprised to see (89) Backpack this early or is this what he normally does?
Lizzied's question - They are thin, but otherwise they look healthy, yes?
Sandbear's question - Do sows follow males at times for mating or is this unusual behavior?
Mocha's question - Will you let us know as soon as poss when (489) Ted arrives? And of course (480) Otis? Oh and 410?
Ranger Mike also shares with us the other wildlife seen at Brooks Camp recently:

Coming together in a moment of unity, bound by our love of bears, chocolate, and Cheetos (and/or Pringles).
