On a day in Arkansas, some fishermen saw a bear cub. As hours went by, its mother didn’t return. So they called wildlife biologist Eastridge.

The bear cub was sick and hungry, weighing only five pounds and with his eyes not completely open. Eastridge called Lisa Stewart, who always makes room for a new cub.

She stopped having contact with the cub so he would not become too used to humans. Stewart cleaned his eyes and put him in a house alone. She named the bear Miracle because she thought it was a miracle that he had survived! Since Miracle was five months old, Stewart gave him bowls of food and another bowl of a special formula. Sometimes, Miracle would reach his head out of his house and take some formula or food. But he wasn’t eating much.

Miracle was too weak to be with other bears. So Stewart gave him a toy bear named Buddy. He took it into his house and covered it with straw. He fed Buddy, too. Stewart often found the toy covered in formula and berries and its ears full of apple chunks. Now that Miracle had Buddy, he came out of his house more often and wanted to eat.

After two months, Stewart introduced Miracle to other bears so they could learn from one another. She avoided any direct contact with Miracle and the other bears. Stewart wanted to make sure they stayed afraid of humans so they could go back into the wild again. She always hid behind a fence and threw food over the top secretly. The bears hunted for this food as they would soon do in the wild.

Five months later, Rick Eastridge returned to pick up a healthy Miracle and another bear named Rocky. Eastridge loaded the bears into bear boxes on his truck and transported them back to the wild. As soon as the bear boxes were opened, they ran for the woods — where they belonged.
