Working Mom by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: Mother Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) has a tough life. She's responsible for protecting her two vulnerable cubs - mostly from other bears. She absolutely has to catch and consume enough salmon to build her fat reserves sufficiently to survive a long winter in stasis. She has to feed the cubs, both with salmon and milk, and to teach them how to survive. She's a working mom, and like every one of those, regardless of species, she's a hero.

The Hot Spot by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: About 8:30 pm. Tide starting to come back in. The water is getting deep but the fish are present. And this mother Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) and her two spring cubs are ready for dinner. The cubs stayed close to mom here, since there were several other bears around. Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

The Last Scrap by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: Their mother caught many salmon that morning, including a huge fish that she shared with them. They ate about two-thirds of that fish. This was all that was left of it. The Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) cub on the left has no intention of sharing the last scrap with her sister. The display of her teeth was intentional. The Cook Inlet, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

On His Level by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: Coastal Brown Bear cub, about two years old. He and his sibling are on their own - their mother was killed last year. So they are very wary and very careful. Here he seems to be confirming that we were not a threat. Coming eye level with a Brown Bear, even one this size, can take your breath away. Telephoto lens, so we were not in any danger here. Beautiful bear - hope he grows up big and strong. Silver Salmon Creek, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

Happy Cub, Grumpy Cub by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: When you observe bear cubs for any extended period of time, you start noticing personality traits of individuals. These two Coastal Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) cubs were hanging out on an exposed sand bank, while their mother fished the shallows for salmon. After a nap, they got up on their hindquarters. Here the "happy" cub on the left seems to have annoyed the "grumpy" cub on the right. Remember, these are "infants" - about 7-8 months old, though, so dispositions change rapidly. After a moment of stink eye, they were running and playing together again. Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

Here Come the Cubs! by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: These Coastal Brown Bears fell asleep after a particularly tasty meal, which consisted of a salmon shared by their mother. When they woke up, and noticed that mother had drifted off in pursuit of another salmon, they high-tailed it over to mom. The cubs barely noticed us and ran right past us. Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

Spring Cub Closeup by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: Gotta love Coastal Alaska. There are not many places on the planet where you can watch a large female Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) fish for salmon while her spring cubs hang out waiting for a feast. It really hit home when one of the tiny cubs decided to "help" mom fish, and walked right in front of us - completely oblivious to our present. Uncropped image. Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

Springing Into Action by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: She had caught several large salmon. Shared them with her two spring cubs. She was sitting on her haunches on the exposed sand bank. The tide was starting to come back in. The Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) yawned and rested her eyes. We thought fishing time was done. We thought she was going down for a nap. Good thing we didn't relax. Here she sprang into action with lightning quickness, running down an unfortunate salmon that splashed too close to her perch. The Cook Inlet, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

Let the Chase Begin by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: Coastal Brown Bear keeps one eye on us, while the other tracks a salmon swimming across her field of view. The chase was about to begin . . . thankfully she went after the salmon. The Cook Inlet, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

All Eyes on Mother Bear by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: Twin sister Coastal Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) cubs watching their mother fish for salmon. They went from zero (sleeping, grooming each other) to sixty (awake, alert, ready to join the feast) when mother bear ran at a salmon. Silver Salmon Creek, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

Brown Bear Cub Safe Place by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) cub watching us carefully from the safety of the tall autumn grass. When these cubs are first introduced to the meadow, typically in mid-June, the grass is their refuge. It shields them from the unfriendly eyes of male bears, who will often try to kill small cubs in order to mate with the mother. Apparently the female cannot come into heat, and mate, while she's producing milk for the cubs. In extreme situations the mother will tree the cubs - but they don't seem to like it (unlike their cousins the Black Bears). Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

Black Bear Surprise by David & Shiela Glatz Via Flickr: Usually not a good idea to surprise a Black Bear in the wild. Luckily we were quite a ways away from her, and she was pre-occupied with gathering her two spring cubs, who were treed up high right behind her.
