**Stage 1: Basic Care** Newborn cubs require constant attention. Players start by preparing formula—mixing warm milk with nutrient supplements. Use a bottle to feed the bear every 2-3 hours; monitor hunger cues like whimpering or pawing. Clean the cub gently with a damp cloth after feedings, avoiding harsh scrubbing. Keep the den warm (75-80°F) using heated pads or blankets. Players must track weight gain and hydration levels daily; failure to meet thresholds triggers alerts. **Stage 2: Building Trust** Once the cub stabilizes, focus shifts to socialization. Introduce soft toys to stimulate curiosity. Initiate short play sessions using feather wands or rolling balls—reward interactions with honey drops. Calm the cub during thunderstorms by humming or rocking; rapid button taps simulate soothing motions. Bonding meters fill faster if players consistently respond to distress calls. Avoid sudden movements—agitation lowers trust progress. **Stage 3: Health Challenges** Growing cubs face risks like parasites or infections. Inspect fur for ticks daily; use tweezers for removal (precise mini-game). Diagnose symptoms: diarrhea requires electrolyte fluids, while fever needs cool compresses. Administer meds via syringe, timing doses to avoid overdosing. Introduce solid foods gradually—mash berries with fish paste, watch for allergic reactions. Missed treatments weaken immunity, prolonging recovery. **Stage 4: Independence Prep** Prepare the cub for wilderness release. Practice foraging by hiding berries under logs; teach claw coordination via scratch-post challenges. Simulate hunting with moving targets—sprint-jump combos build stamina. Reduce dependency by spacing feedings to 6-hour intervals. Final test: Survive a 48-hour mock wilderness trial. Success unlocks a release cutscene; low survival skills force repeat training.
