This is brutal. Please rename this video to "The Tragic Story of Tiny Cub," place a content warning about cub death at the beginning, something to warn the viewer that this is not a happy story. I was trying to cheer my partner up with cute and heartwarming videos of bear cubs and now we're both bawling. I can appreciate that this is a part of life and that the natural word is a tough place to exist, but the KZbin algorithm can't tell the difference between this and some suoercut of cute cubs because the title isn't accurately describing the content.

OMG this is so heartbreakingly devastating to see. As Tiny Cub looks longingly after them but cannot go on! You keep hoping as you watch, that the outcome will be different but you know that it won't! Later, 803 keeps looking around for her 3rd baby as her two cubs nurse! 🥺🥺🥺🥺 Does anyone know why Tiny Cub suddenly seemed to get sick? What happened exactly?

No, we don't know why she died. A few years back a cub died from canine adenovirus, so it's possible this cub had that.

Instead that the conservation officers couldn't have intervened. Taken the Cub to the refuge to be rehabilitated. I have just spent the last month of my life syringe feeding a small kitten that had no From its mother. He was a 3rd of the size of the other 6 kittens. And they were pushing him out of the way and he was not allowed to feed. When I was at my friends. But as he was limp and cold. I went to the vet and got some kitten formula and started surrendering feeding him right away. He preked up within a couple of days of having nutrition and hydration. Sometimes us humans have to interfere with nature to help it along. But I was able to help hes a beautiful little Kitty a month later. I think we need to do our part to help the animals. To point to the conservation officer didn't step in.

The mother bear most likely had no control over the cubs sickness. But she did have control over whether or not the cub got lost. He or she was clearly struggling to keep up, yet she neglected to keep him in sight on far to many long stretches, both water and land.

[@thoquach7609]

Bears are still animals, not human. No matter how clever they are, they can’t think & rational like human. She had to go find food for herself so she can produce enough milk for her cubs plus training & teaching her cubs to swim so when they grow bigger, they would need to catch fish for their own food. Being a mother of 3 cubs are too handful & harsh on her in the wildlife already.😢

@@angelagoode7224 I'm sure that the rangers were as sad as we were/are. but, think Prime Directive.. non interference as much as possible. Maybe your recuse and release would work. But in this case, it could have very well have caused problems for the other two because Mama was distraught and distracted with the sick one. It's not hard hearted or cruel, it just is.

[@IngoSchwarze]

@@angelagoode7224 It's not as simple as you seem to think, and not just for the prime directive. In fact, by far the worst danger that grizzlies are exposed to is getting habituated to humans. They need their natural instinct of avoiding humans in order to be able to survive in the wild. A habituated bear is almost a dead bear already - it will get into more and more conflict with humans, and ultimately, most habituated bears have to be shot dead. Consequently, you can't just take in a sick bear to an animal sanctuary, nurse it to health, and release it into the wild again. Such a bear would hardly survive in the wild but instead keep coming back to human settlements because it associates humans with food, thus endangering both itself over and over again as well as endangering many humans. Besides, survival rates of grizzly cubs are pretty low in the wild in the first place. In particular, young and inexperienced brown bear mothers usually have cub survival rates below 50%. So even if nursing sick cubs would be an option at all, which it usually isn't, rangers would be totally overwhelmed with work trying to save all the cubs that die every year. Don't forget that bear management is usually under-funded, even in national parks, and the rangers barely keep up with all the work they already have to do. Sadly, the majority of that work consists in preventing other human beings from being stupid around bears and endangering both the bears and the humans. That hardest part of bear management is usually people management, and there is very little room for being sentimental about a single dying cub, as harsh as that will unfortunately sound... 🐻😥

[@thoquach7609]

@@IngoSchwarzeThanks. Very well said. I can’t agree with you more. Yes, although it’s heartbreaking for us to watch the Tiny Cub died of drowning, I feel the pain of mama bear, but this happens a lot in wildlife - only strong cubs survive so they will keep passing on their healthy genes to the next generations. This is part of natural selection.

I feel like there’s plenty that that mother bear could’ve done to prevent this from happening like perhaps let that tiny baby eat first. Mother bears can discipline so why not discipline the older ones if they’re pushing that baby off the milk. And also I’ve seen the Cubs climb up on their mothers back so why couldn’t she put that baby on her back? I think this is ridiculous I know it’s nature but it still Upsetting and unnecessary

[@IngoSchwarze]

Brown bear mothers only have a cub survival rate of about 50% on average in the first place. So they are usually better off making sure at least the strongest cubs survive - it's not even unusual for a mother to lose all her cubs in a litter. Prioritizing the runt of the litter would be counter-productive. That's not how evolution works. This likely sounds harsh, but few wild animals can afford the luxury of caring for the weakest first. Doing so is a typically human privilege.

[@cousinnastee495]

The cub was last seen on a small island and the rangers waded out to check if it was there and it was. They assessed that the cub died of "natural causes." I'm not really sure what that means, but the cub was very small and maybe not strong enough to survive.
