Who are Lily Fans you might wonder? Lily Fans were “born” in 2010 as people watched in awe as Lily the Black Bear gave birth to her first cub Hope. Lily became an Internet sensation; people were glued to their chairs watching this 3-year-old bear in her remote den via a live den cam. Lily Fans watched, they learned, but mostly they connected via social media and strong bonds and friendships developed. Ever since, the name Lily Fans stuck and they continued watch other den cams over the years and show their support for the North American Bear Center. |
