From the Sequoia Park Zoo:

Happy 4th Birthday, Ishŭng!

Ishŭng the American black bear has been at Sequoia Park Zoo for a year! For her birthday, we’re celebrating the #QueenOfHumboldt and her many milestones!

We are so proud of the bear skills that Ishŭng has gained this year thanks to her curiosity, personality, and physical bear-apy program.

Her body condition is much better for a bear with her small frame, though she’s still a bit large. She’s now able to climb up onto higher platforms and jump down from platforms, run around, hop, manipulate objects better, successfully forage for food like a bear typically would, and play for much longer periods without getting tired.

This goofy, playful, beautiful bear has had a wonderful year, and we hope you enjoy this compilation of some of her silly highlights.
