Update – January 21, 10:11 PM ET
Thank you all for your patience when we lost our video feed at the source here in Ely, MN this evening. We had a power-surge and a piece of equipment needed to be rebooted. We’ll take steps in the future to prevent this from happening again. ...

1:40AM den time

lily is a bit restless but seems to be sleeping comfortably. If today is the day, I hope all goes well for her.

Lily became restless this morning about 4:30AM CT. She licked a white substance off her chest. We suspect she is leaking milk as her labor progresses.

Lily at 5:12 a.m.
She is still very restless and pushing her front paws against the side of the den. I think she's still having quite strong contractions.

active laboring, initially I couldn't orient her position, but the whole body was contracting

11:06 head at 7:00, turned onto left side so belly is facing camera

she leaned forward to groom/lick genital area (3:00). never having seen that view of a bear, i would speculate its enlarged.

11:08 has settled and is resting, curled up same position

to orient on the bottom picture, her eye is visible at the lower left of screen

11:35 taking a rest....
