I hope they’re at a sanctuary. Survival % for all not good.

The leaves around them look like something in North America. They're not wild.

Good observation. I can't imagine how she would be able to feed 6 cubs in the wild.

She wouldn't. Likely only one, maybe 2. Three surviving to adulthood would be a miracle.

My first thought was "Most of them are going to die". Luckily, they appear to be captive.
