Marineland has been in trouble before because of its bears. Back in 2012 the OSPCA directed them to put their female bears on contraceptives because they were letting the males eat newborn cubs. Babies are not bear food!
So here we are 7 years later and a young staff discovered a bear had given birth to four cubs. She alerted management who told her to let nature take its course. In other words, let the males eat them. The staff could not let that happen. She used a net to fish the newborns out of the den. Sadly a male had already killed one of the cubs but she was able to save three of them.
Now that they are safe, Marineland is caring for them and acting like they always meant to care for them

This is so typical of Marineland. They have a history of not caring for their animals. Now that we are watching them, they will look after the cubs and also find a way to exploit them. A brave staff that took chances and risked her job to make sure they were safe. Now that she is a public figure they will not fire her.
Anything that involves public scrutiny will be done right. When no one is watching who knows what they are doing. I doubt it is anything good.
