On January 22, 2010, Lily, an American Black Bear, gave birth to her first cub in a forest den near Ely, Minnesota. For the first time ever, a den-cam allowed thousands of viewers worldwide to witness the birth and family life inside the den. Showcasing the talents of some of the 95,000 fans of Lily the Black Bear and her cub Hope, 100% of the revenue from this store will be used by The Wildlife Research Institute, a privately funded 501(c)(3) nonprofit research and education organization conducting independent research under a permit from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
The mission of the Wildlife Research Institute is to conduct scientific research on bears, other wildlife, and their habitat, and provide that information to decision-makers, the scientific community, students, and the public.
Dr. Lynn Rogers and Sue Mansfield will be using this revenue specifically to further their research with collared bears near Ely, Minnesota, in the form of research materials such as radio-collars, GPS units, video cameras, remote tracking and recording devices.

Zazzle's customer care/service
Recently I had posted on this site about the problem that I had with Zazzle on a previous order and their lack of concern. My purpose of the post was to caution the bear community that Zazzle might not be as responsive as they should be towards problems that may arise from orders. With the concern & help of Rebecca Hamilton, Zazzle made some promises & commitments to me to satisfy my problem that I had with my order. Zazzle went way beyond what was needed to make sure that I was satisfyied. That said, I want everyone one to know that you need not worry about Zazzle making sure their customers are satisfyied. My only suggestion, would be to contact them directly as I used the email to communicate & I really think that was where the ball was dropped. Had I just called them, I am sure that things would have been taken care of immediately as they are very nice people. I would also like to add that I just received my order of Lily & Hope products from Zazzle and WOW - the quality & weight of the cotton tees is great - also the stitching on the hat and the comfort fit is the best. I would also like to thank Rebecca Hamilton for her help - with her on the bear community's side we're all winners. Thanks again Rebecca for your help.

Black Bear attacks
I have been fishing Brook Trout in backwoods of Michigan and Canada for over 45 years...Not once in those 45 years, have I had a bad experience with a Black Bear. Once while picking Blueberries, I looked up to see a rather large Black Bear no more then 50 feet from me...Yet this Bear was so content, that it was not bothered by me...Slowly I backed off, and this bear gave me nothing but the occasional glance...I respect the Black Bear for is beauty and do not fear him.
