This is a tale of a black bear cub that is inadvertently separated from its hibernating mother, Bertha, when it gets hungry and wanders across the melting ice between their den on an island and the main shoreline. Fortunately, a whole host of forest friends come to the cub's rescue. Thanks to smelling salts supplied by the skunk, Bertha awakens and is reunited with the anxious cub.
