So a few days ago I went to one of the sportsman's shows they have at the expo center in Utah. And in it, they had an area where you could go and pet and hold bear cubs and get pay to have your picture taken with one of them.

So while I did get a paid picture, I don't know yet if I'm going to post it, but in the meantime, here's my hand petting one of the cubs when walking out of the exit. They apparently had around 15 bears total, but had them come out in shifts. This little guy and one other were out, but I guess this one still seemed pretty sleepy. :P

If anybody is wondering what a bear feels like: their fur feels coarse, but soft. Also, this one was ticklish on his shoulder.
