In early March an orphaned bear cub was found in Kuhmo in Finland. Because the place is very near Kuusamo the police took the baby to Sulo Karjalainen.

Who could be a better choice to take care of the cubbie than Sulo who is an experienced ‘bear nanny’!

The cubbie was called Pena (a boy’s name) but Sulo soon found out the baby is a girl so the name was changed to Aina. 🙂

Of course, Aina was very skinny when she arrived but luckily she immediately started eating well. The fluffy toy helped her to feel secure.

The new home was a bit frightening in the beginning but very soon Aina realized she has a good home now.

Sulo and Aina are the best friends and they both like to walk in the surrounding fields.
