introduces boys and their adult partners to the excitement of Cub Scouting as they "Search,
Discover, and Share" together. Tiger Cubs earn the Tiger Cub badge by completing 15

are found in the Wolf Cub Scout Book. Boys working towards their Wolf Badge are called
Wolf Cubs.

24 Bear achievements in 4 different categories. The Cub Scout must complete 12 of these to
