They were joined by a cub that is almost as big as its mother already.
Then a second cub but they wouldn't keep still so the photos are a bit blurred (the shutter speed in the low light is only 1/60s).
I haven't yet managed a picture of both parents with all the cubs. I see three or four cubs together every night.
Most often they get along well but there is always an undercurrent of competition.
The change from peanuts to dog biscuits has also meant that the cubs spend more time collecting and stashing food which also makes them more difficult to catch all together. It will be interesting to see how things develop over the next few weeks as they get older.
