First Spring Cubs of 2018 Season ~ Could this be 132?[]
The first spring cubs of the 2018 season were seen at Brooks Camp on June 28, 2018.... Could this be 132? 132 would have no gap year between 2017 emancipation of her 2014 litter and this litter if it is her. 132 has only had one known litter, her 2014 litter, so no 132 history to pull from.

During the July 3, 2018 Live Chat with Mike Fitz and Ranger Russ LaValle from the Riffles platform, Mike Fitz says that he believes this sow with two spring cubs is 132.
