What is the meaning of the word 'orphan'?

Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question that follows:

When a young spirit bear named Clover wakes up from his winter hibernation, he will have a new home waiting for him. Clover, who is almost 3-year-old, lives at the B.C. Wildlife Park near Kamloops, British Columbia. He was orphaned as a cub and raised at a wildlife shelter. When he was released back into the wild, he broke into human camps looking for food. Wildlife experts tried to get him used to living on his own, but he continued to look for places where there were people. Eventually the experts decided that he could not adapt to living in the wild. Normally, a bear that is not afraid of humans is destroyed because it could be a nuisance or even dangerous to people. Spirit bears are very rare, however, so Clover was moved to an enclosure in the B.C. Wildlife Park in October 2012. Since then, the park has been trying to raise money to create a suitable habitat for Clover to live in. Clover’s new home was carefully planned to ensure it contains proper features for a bear. It covers about three acres of land and includes natural forest, two ponds connected by a creek, and a structure for a den. It is surrounded by a 10-foot-high chain link fence.
