Managing one HUMAN child is hard enough…but 27 bears cubs????

A 60 year old man from New Hampshire has the tough task of getting 27 orphan bear cubs cuties to bed….

FOR THE WINTER!!!

As reported earlier, Ben Kilham is the area's "bear rehabilitator", and every year, he gets the fun job to teaching four to five cubbies how to act like bears when their mothers are taken away from them during hunting season.

So sad….it's hard losing a mother, whether you are human or tiger or any other species.

Three orphaned four month old tiger babes lost their mama and they were rescued from Siberia in late November.

The cubbies caused a stir when they attempted to snack on a farmer's dog as they searched for food.

These two cutiez' journey has blown them away!

High winds in Dundas, Australia blew two tawny frogmouth chicks from their nest.

Thankfully, the chickie babes landed in someone's yard and the homeowner alerted the Taronga Zoo in Sydney and local wildlife officials.

Now these two birdies are safe and sound at the zoo and they look awfully happy about their new digs.

At least of them does!

Looks like Knuckles isn't the only tough echidna!

Beau is only 30 days old but he's proving to be quite the rascal at the Taronga Zoo.

The tiny echidna puggle was orphaned at birth and was brought to the zoo after he was found helpless on a trail near Sydney.

It is believed that the babe might have fallen out of his mama's pouch but luckily, he's doing quite fine at the Aussie zoo.

Check out the video (above) to see more of the beautiful Beau!

With a little bit of cooperation and teamwork, there's a new family in the Oklahoma City Zoo!

Ruben has been hand raised ever since her mother, Rukiya, died 24 hours after giving birth to him.

His father and surrogate mother mistreated him and Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo decided Ruben needed a change of scenery.

Enter the OKC Zoo, where surrogate mom Kito and alpha male Mwami are treating their new arrival with lots of love!

We love happy endings! Congrats on your new fam, Ruben!
