Polar Bear Mom Protects Her Cubs From a Hungry Male

As they embark on their long summer migration, a polar bear mother and her cubs need frequent breaks along the way. This puts the cubs at risk from an unlikely predator: famished male polar bears.

i love it when bears stand on two legs

[blackmarlin]

It's heart warming that being a mom transcends species.

[andrewsrandoms]

This shows how hard-working and loving mothers are.

Quite ironic that these small Cubs would one day probably be in this male Bear's shoes(metaphorically 😃)

[mandymoore]

Crazy how these animals are such amazing mothers.

I didn't know that male polar bears eat baby polar bears. You learn something new everyday.

Clickbait.

I just came from a video where a male polar bear killed and ate a cub.

These cubs were lucky. Clearly this male wasn't hungry enough or he would've given chase

a mom is always a mom will do everything. weather animal or human.

1:36 I see you Johnny boy! Quit hunting my cubs!

[margaretszuky]

WOW!! WHAT A "GREAT" POLAR MOM!! I WISHED MORE "PEOPLE" MOMS WHERE MORE LIKE HER!! "PROTECTING THEIR YOUNG"

[moonlight-mrqc]

It was known of world animals, the male would eat the cubs to mate with the female. It always took the cubs away from all males till they grow bigger.

This reminds me of how lonely and vulnerable some moms can be with their cubs just like cheetahs ... sadly it is how nature functions

[megapunk]

Never knew that polar bears were cannibals

[micycles]

Every nature show ever: Polar bears are the most dangerous predators on earth and will eat anything that moves, even humans and other polar bears.

Me: Polar bears are still so cute and I want to pet one.

Came here after that depressing national geographic vid where the male bear eats the baby bear

Ahhhh bad times

[ecclairmayo]

They have such a hard life. Even the male not having a meal in months is sad, and im sure we make it much worse
