Lily
A call and an email with a picture of Lily four days ago began a series of visits by Lily to a location where she is fueling up to make milk this winter.
Meanwhile, five new mothers have been spotted with a total 3 male and 8 female cubs. They are:
- Shadow’s 19-year-old granddaughter Bow (Shadow, RC, Bow) with one female cub.
- Shadow’s 3-year-old great granddaughter Mia (Shadow, Ursula, Maureen, Mia) with two female cubs.
- Shadow’s 3-year-old great-great granddaughter Twila (Shadow, Blackheart, Dot, Vanna, Twila) with one female cub.
- Shadow’s 16-year-old great-great granddaughter Summer (Shadow, Blackheart, Donna, Shannon, Summer) with two male and two female cubs.
- Shadow’s 7-year-old great-great-great-great granddaughter Sallyann (Shadow, Blackheart, Donna, Shannon, Star, Vonnie, Sallyann) with one male and two female cubs.
Thank you for all you do,
