Question: can webelos earn merit badges?
Answer: The Webelos Activity Badges are a smaller version of Merit Badges. As a Cub Scout, you have a chance to earn four badges - Tiger Cub, Bobcat, Wolf, and Bear. A Cub may also have received some arrow points and Progress Toward Ranks beads. But in Webelos Scouting, a Webelos Scout can earn 22 badges!
