A jetboat captain spotted a white bear cub on a guided trip about 2 miles upriver from Wells Bridge. (Wells Bridge is at 23 Mile). The bear was identified by Fish and Game Biologists as a light colored black bear or Glacier Bear. These bears are also called Spirit Bears. This little guy is not an albino because he had some dark color around his eyes. Glacier Bears are a sub-species of the black bear.
