THE BEAR SCOUTS



A child who is 9 years old or is in the third grade is a Bear, and their adventures are found in the Bear Handbook. Like all other new Cub Scouts, a Bear must first earn the Bobcat badge. After completing the requirements for Bobcat (unless earned as a Tiger or Wolf), they go on to complete the requirements for the Bear rank. Bear Scouts work toward the Bear rank. The Bear rank is earned by completing seven adventures as described below.
