I spent some time this week going through den camera footage. We’ll have some great stuff from the end of May next week. In the meantime, here are two of my favorite clips from May 9th.

Dad’s Duties
M1803 is a great dad. He’s got a few jobs. Primarily, starting when the female is pregnant, he provides food. He brings her food. He lets her take food from him. He repeats.

In fact, you might not see them at all in the primary den as the parents have spent time moving the pupsRead more
