article: A family in far eastern Russia has adopted an orphaned bear cub which was found alone after its mother was likely killed by poachers. The Shcherbakov family has been caring for the cub, which is unable to survive on its own, since it wandered up to their house gate three weeks ago. With scenes reminiscent of the fairy tale Goldilocks and the Three Bears, the family matriarch cooks porridge for the little bear at the family’s home in Tulun, in Russia’s Irkutsk region. The Shcherbakov family adopted the bear cub after it wandered up to the gate at their home in Tulun, Russia . The family matriarch (pictured) feeds the bear porridge and milk from a refashioned beer bottle . She also feeds him milk from a refashioned beer bottle, and she told Reuters that he loves snacking on sweets. The bear, nicknamed Mishutka, may be a cute little cub right now, but he will soon grow to become a massive beast that will pose a danger to the family and become expensive to feed and shelter. The family is hoping to find a new home for the hand-reared bear and has posted adverts on the internet. They hope the publicity will encourage a circus or zoo to take him in. Wildlife experts caution against bringing an orphaned bear cub or any other wild animals into the home . The bear, nicknamed Mishutka, will soon become a massive beast that will pose a danger to the family . The family has placed adverts on the internet and are hoping the publicity will lead to a new home for the bear . While it may seem like a heartwarming tale local hunter and biologist Nikolai Tereshenko said there are few places to relocate a bear in that region, and he told Reuters that people should not adopt wild animals. He said: ‘In a home setting, when he's small, he's safe. But when he grows up, there are a lot of cases in the past, where a grown bear could even kill his caretaker. ‘To kill with one move of his paw and tear up, and do anything. So I wouldn't recommend taming a wild beast, and I have never done it myself, although I have had a lot of chances.’
