Orphaned bear cubs Timber and Thorn enjoyed a romp through their Black Bear Ridge habitat at the Oregon Zoo.

The duo has spent most of their time behind the scenes since arriving in December, but care staff say the cubs are growing in size and confidence and they now venture out to play nearly every day.

Found wandering separately in Alaska and too young to survive on their own, both cubs were rescued by state wildlife officials and taken to the Alaska Zoo in Anchorage for care before coming to Portland.

Care staff named the cubs in honor of their forest home and Portland’s major league soccer teams, the Timbers and Thorns.
