Nice video. I would say grizzly cubs because the line from the head to the nose is not straight. My wife and I got within 20' of a black bear cub 3 weeks ago near Harris Creek. We did not see the sow but we did not stay around to look either.

Definitely hard to tell with cubs...you got the exact right idea, the facial profile isn't straight, the only thing that makes me think they could be blackies is the longer snout plus the ears are quite large in comparison to the head..

Great video! I'm leaning toward grizzly based on the appearance of a hump in the shoulders of the cub on the right. Would need more info before making a positive ID though.

Did mom mom leave any tracks or make an appearance on camera?

Black bears, too big of ears for grizz cubs. Face is not that concave and grizz cubs have pronounced concave face.

I don't want to post a bunch of cub picts, but google the cubs of both. Grizz cubs have small ears, blackies have much bigger ears.

Great video, thank for posting!!!

I agree with Sitka. The face doesn't look right. The Griz cubs I've seen in the wild at that age seem to have an almost white V on their chest too.

D, due to the fact that you'll be moving (house) on September 1st, did you need someone to hang a stand in there and watch the lick for you? LOL I know you really wanted to sell your house, but the timing sucks.

And you hear that timing is everything,, this is possibly the worst timing ever,, sell the house and move Sept 1st.. being an archer i can't think of what could possibly be worse, in 25 yrs i have never missed opening of archery season,,
the stand is going in on that lick next week, so your SOL , JT.
but hey thanks for the offer,, at least i know you had my best interests in mind ;-)

I checked my cams last week while I was back. 2200 images of elk on one cam (lots of repeat customers), 1280 on another.... 480 on another, I have 6 out in total. My stands are hung and I get back in country a week and a half before the hunt.

Length of snout is too long compared to width of ear to ear. Has to be BLACK
