Together for Wildlife: Giving Orphaned Grizzly Cubs a Brighter Future
September 22, 2025 | 1 minute read
Our conservation expertise spans the globe, but our hearts are always ready to help close to home.
Last week, we were contacted by Alberta Fish & Wildlife after two wild grizzly cubs were found orphaned in southern Alberta. It’s believed that the grizzly sow (mom) was killed after an aggressive interaction with a human.
The cubs were born this year and are still fully dependent on their mom. Without human intervention, they surely would have died if left in the wild. Thanks to our strong partnership with Alberta Fish & Wildlife, we were able to step in and help give them a second chance. They’re receiving exceptional care and lots of love from our dedicated Animal Care, Health & Welfare team as we work to find them a safe, forever home.
A huge thank you to Alberta Fish & Wildlife for their swift action in rescuing these young grizzly cubs. Lifesaving work like this is only possible through strong partnerships, and we’re grateful to be part of their journey forward.
