Summary A tea farmer in south China found twin black bear cubs alone in a forest, state media said.
China Central Television reported that the tea farmer, Tian Shougui, heard the animals crying in the forest two weeks ago and brought them home to his house.When they wake up, they come to me and play with my bottom of trousers, Tian said. After they are fed, they play for a bit longer, then go to sleep.Tian fed them milk, rice powder and egg yolks, the report said. He wanted to keep them until they grew to about 15 kilograms (33 pounds), but a local animal welfare organization is planning to take over their care and releasing them back into the wild sooner.
