We've been tracking the mom, B255, since 2010 and tagged her kittens while she was away from the den. Here are the sisters before they were ear-tagged. Biologists removed them from the den to do the work-up, which consists of the ear-tagging and blood and tissue samples. They were then returned to the den. Credit: National Park Service.
