TEHRAN, Iran - A mother bear appears to have cared for a missing
16-month-old Iranian toddler, who was found safe and sound three days later
in the animal's den, the Kayhan newspaper said Tuesday.  The child's
parents, from a nomadic tribe in western Lorestan province, returned to
their tent after working in the fields to find him missing, Kayhan
said.  Three days later, a search party found the toddler in a den about
six miles from the nomadic settlement. The search party said the toddler
had probably been breast fed by a mother bear.  A medical examination showed
the toddler was in good health, the daily said.
