A Rare Bear Family - Newborn Cub, Older Sibling and Beautiful Mother

[@MooseManNaturePhotos]

Hello Paul, MooseMan Rick and Libby here, incredible rare footage, outstanding outdoor moment. We love how the older sibling was looking up at the tiny cub, like "come on down". That is a very unique video

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

Thank You Rick and Libby! ..it was certainly a rare Family. We had never seen this before this day, so a first. We saw them again the following year, so all was still well then.. and by that time it was a lot harder to see the size difference of the 2 siblings. Thank You! Hope You are all set for another Great Moose Rut!

@@WildlifeOnVideo good to hear back, we're here, in good health and feeling blessed to experience another rut.

Beautiful Video of true love in Bear family! The mother was so patient and sibling helpful! Love this❤❤❤❤

[@maralonent6257]

There was another video of another family of mom older sibling and young baby. Apparently the first cub had been chased off by a male bear during mating season and not seen again, presumed killed by the male. Then the mother had a new cub, and I think almost a year later she was seen again with another young female bear in tow as well as new cub that could only have been her original cub. The cub must have survived and found her way back to mom. Such a lovely thing.

Happy for the little one. Just had to get its confidence up. It’s sibling was trying so hard to help. Momma did not give up and was very concerned. ❤️👍

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

Yes, thank you Sue! This is the earliest we have ever seen a coy here and are so glad to see it with such a patient Mum.

[@viviant1145]

the older sibling does not separate from mom during the mating season ,, very great mom

[@kroakie4]

Seems like the little one figured out how to climb up that tree and then couldn’t quite figure out how to get back down . 😂

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

Yes, it was just so young. They are all doing fine now! Thank you Kroakie!

[@RHGB]

She gets a gold star for hiding and very good at not falling down. 🤗

[@worldtraveler721]

Adorable cubby!

[@JustMe-cy3wg]

Beautiful!! Mom was so patient with the little one❤️❤️

[@alanstevens1296]

"Newborn" is relative. His eyes are open and he is climbing trees, so probably at least 4 weeks old.

[@didibolter9362]

This family is truly magnificent, I love them all! 😍😚😙

[@marjorjorietillman856]

This is the first time I’ve seen an older and younger sibling still at home with mom! Maybe it’s too tough out there for the older sibling to make it on its own! Some of us had to do that once! The baby is so CUTE!!

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

We suspect that the older sibling moved away for safety during mating season.. and then came back with Mum, ending up denning with a pregnant Mum.

[@marjorjorietillman856]

@@WildlifeOnVideo That sounds logical!

[@Sunshinexoxo4795]

The cubs remain around mom 2-4 years old.

[@Sunshinexoxo4795]

The older cub tried several times to encourage the tiny cub to come down but he was scared he was going to fall or loose his balance. I'm so happy to know three are just fine and ok in the forest. 💋💋💋🙏🙏🙏🙏I'm praying for the three.

[@johncameron8253]

Oh you guys. That's just awesome video. Gotta love ❤️ nature. Heather

[@stevelee4653]

well when they are that little, trying process what to do.. I am glad the little is ok.. good mom and her eldest child help the baby get down.. nice video..

[@roxiefern]

Beautiful scenery and cute family. I'm glad they are ok, I love the uniqueness of this bear 🐻 family. We all need a little extra love in these trying times ❣

[@stevelee4653]

Beautiful!!!!

[@z978ady]

Mother bears are designated to tolerate their genetic daughters within their territory but to occupy the same tree as the mother with that cub seems rare.

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

It was some rare moments indeed. Thank you Ricky!

[@naturepyrenees7252]

Magnifique vidéo, quel beau moment 👏🏼👌🏼

Oh my goodness 😳 are you kidding. I agree it's very rare footage. Heather

[@bessiemann7468]

Thank you for sharing.This is unusual

[@markpaiste]

The Bear are our Brother and our Sister..❤️

[@Kobzar3374]

We have been the whole time waiting for the little one to come down…

[@damkayaker]

I think the younger cub was being bullied by his older sibling and was trying to stay away from it.

[@esthermarcen7587]

I hope all are doing good now almost a year passed

[@mariadelcastillotapiadorpa3379]

Son tan bellos como peligrosos.😍😍😍💘

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

They sure are! Thank you Maria!

[@wisconsinfarmer4742]

how rare is this combination? newborn, yearling and mom.

[@wisconsinfarmer4742]

ok , I see a few hypotheses in other comments

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

In this particular Bear families' case, we believe the black cub may have been chased off by a Boar during mating season, but the cub stayed close enough to reunite with Mom after successful mating happened. They probably denned together with another cub or more joining them, being born in the den in late January or early February. It is believed that this Mum is biological to both cubs, however. Thank You Wisconsin!

only one cubs must lost others cubs .that Yearling found mother and start to follow after came out of winter den and with single cub to take care she accept Yearling cub again

[@RHGB]

She might have adopted the little one.

[@22Bruinsdude]

@@RHGB I definitely think you are correct ! 🐻

[@veeriabroadcast]

wow how I mean I thought the female bear would be in estrus when she weans her cub, very confusing lol

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

Yes, the Cub had to have went on it's own for a bit and came back after. Thank you!

[@veeriabroadcast]

@@WildlifeOnVideo hope the yearling will be gentle with the little one. Thank you for sharing, learning something new in the bear world everyday. They keep me cheerful during the pandemic.

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

Whenever Mum feeds them and then decides the meal is over, Bear Cubs usually squabble pretty hard for a few seconds in frustration. If that happens as usual with these two, it could be pretty tough on the little one.

[@kroakie4]

Mom would probably put the yearling in it’s place if it was too aggressive with the baby.

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

Yes, typically Mum would react to protect the younger Cub. Thank you Kroakie!

[@yveslabbe9608]

C'est une belle vidéo, mais je suis toute mêlé. La mère c'est ours noir ou l'ours brun.

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

Mum is a "brown phase" Black Bear. Thank You!
