Photo of the week: Black bear cub poses in South Lake Tahoe

A mama bear and her three cubs were living near an apartment complex at the Y in South Lake Tahoe for several months. One day while mama bear was away, local Erik Dahman got a photo of one of the cubs. He pulled out his camera, the cub looked up at him, stood up on it's hind legs, put its paw on the tree, tilted its head, and Erik took the shot.

Thank you Erik for this great photo!
