Northern California zoo will adopt rescued bear cub

A rescued bear cub, nursed back to health after being found sick, will be transferred to a Northern California zoo for permanent care. The cub, weighing only 10 pounds and suffering from skin infections when found in December, has recovered but faces challenges surviving in the wild. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife made the decision to place him in human care. The Sequoia Park Zoo in Eureka, known for housing orphaned bears, will receive the cub, who will be named by a local tribe. The transfer's timing is still being finalized.
