Assistant Forest Conservator Tabibur Rahman, also the officer-in-charge of the safari park, said, "The female bear was placed under special surveillance after she became pregnant and on 5 January the bear gave birth to two cubs in a special enclosure. The park officials are still feeding the mother bear in the enclosure."
