Tremendous footage showing a male bear attacking a female with her cub and both falling and tumbling down cliffs… Amazingly they both survived but must be quite badly injured.
The female has been located and is still nursing her cub but time will tell what kind of internal injuries she has. Local wildlife guards are also supplying food and water to the area she is sheltering.

No new sightings of the female or her young. They both may have died in the cave or its been suggested that she has left and gone somewhere else. Plans to fly a drone with a thermal camera into the cave seem a bit odd….
Fundación Oso Pardo
𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐨́𝐧 sobre el seguimiento de la 𝐨𝐬𝐚 𝐝𝐞 𝐥𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐧̃𝐚 𝐏𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐚 𝐲 𝐬𝐮 𝐜𝐫𝐢́𝐚. Recordaréis que se refugiaron en una cueva tras despeñarse la osa junto a un macho infanticida con el que peleaba para proteger a su osezno.
N𝐨 𝐬𝐞 𝐡𝐚 𝐯𝐮𝐞𝐥𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐬 ni de la osa ni de la cría, a pesar de la vigilancia permanente de la zona, y de la cámara automática con visor remoto enfocando a la boca de la cueva. La última vez fue hace una semana cuando la cámara registró al osezno asomándose a la entrada de la gruta.
Por ello, el operativo de seguimiento, que está dirigido por la @Junta de Castilla y León y en el que colabora la FOP, empleará en los próximos días un 𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐚́𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐚 𝐭𝐞́𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐜𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐚 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐫 𝐞𝐥 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐫 𝐝𝐞 𝐥𝐚 𝐜𝐮𝐞𝐯𝐚.
Además, se ha ampliado el área de vigilancia en el exterior, por si la osa y la cría hubieran abandonado la cueva por otra salida, algo poco probable pero no descartable en un roquedo calizo.

The Junta for CyL have a notice published today.
Durante la semana pasada, al no observar nuevas imágenes de la osa y del osezno, se decidió iniciar las prospecciones remotas, utilizando para ello videoscopios y drones de inspección de interiores.
I hate to say it but, I would think that the mother has died inside the cave….
