Polar bears are curious animals that are the world’s most giant bears right now. They are the Arctic’s main predators and a powerful symbol of strength as well.
Polar bears are solitary animals. Biologists and scientists declare the bond between mother/offspring and between siblings as one of the very few social behaviors they have been able to witness in the species. There is a deep bond among them.
However, the relationship between a Polar bear family is something amusing to look at. Just look at these adorable captures, and you will easily get hooked in no time.

Just two adorable babies following their mama.
Newborn cubs always follow their mother through the heavy snow. They tend to stick to their mama bear at all costs.
Roll… Roll… Roll… Rolling In The Snow!
These newborns are following their mom, but being playful and rolling on the snow is no exception. Cubs are energetic no matter the place.
Too Adorable To Handle…
They are indeed glued to each other. However, during the first cold weeks outside, the warmth and coziness of the maternity den, the cubs learn to survive on their own.
So Tiny Next To The Mama Bear
Cubs stay with their mom for just about two years. They are learning as much as possible. They know how to navigate sea ice, when and where to migrate, hunt, avoid danger, and many more. They tend to mimic their mom in the learning process sometimes.
Yup, Mom Is The Home!
The cubs are both shy and prudent at first but gradually grow up strong and independent.
The cubs will learn how to play and venture into the harsh environment soon after quality time with their mom.

The bond between mother and offspring and siblings and siblings is powerful.
It is a mutual relationship, even though it is for just two or three years.
I Might Be A Predator But I’m The Cutest.
Polar bear families emerge from their dens in March or April. At that time, cubs are strong enough to survive outside.
But mother bears still wait a few days near the maternity den till the cubs get used to the cold and their surroundings. Mother Bear stops nursing and begins to rest, letting little cubs explore things independently.
Do You Think We Cuddle? Absolutely.
Here is how baby bears are snuggled close to a resting mother bear peacefully lying close to a willow tree.
Ummm….. Mam? Are You Searching For Your Son? Well, He is In The Back.
Playing, Chasing, Wrestling, fighting, cuddling, and napping together are daily routines for polar bear families. These pictures alone can make you decide how patient the mother bears are. They are always patient with their little cubs. Moreover, they should be patient about how playful the cubs are, even near a resting mama bear.
