Today's #goodnews is a silver bear cub in Katmai National Park & Preserve in Alaska. Some think it's a cross between a polar & grizzly bear but most think it's a rare genetic feature. The good news is the cub seems healthy & bears don't use fur for camouflage so the color doesn't pose any danger.

Rare footage of silver bear cub captured in national park livestream. Is it a pizzly bear?

Viewers were quick to question whether the bear was a grizzly-polar bear mix.

Today's #goodnews is Badger & Banjo-2 brave dogs assisting Nevada’s Dept of Wildlife's bear team. They flush bears from dens, locate injured bears & haze human-habituated bears by chasing them as they're released back into the wild. The goal is to ensure the bears have a healthy fear of people.

Here are the top 5 dogs of the week!

Today's #goodnews is baby rhinos (as cute as baby elephants) born to 6 rhinos who were rescued in 2017 & now all have given birth to their own calves. Rescued rhinos are always confused when taken into care because all they know is their mother. Rehabilitation takes years but it's worth it. ❤️
