Bear Cubs hold hands while mom goes hunting

Many people believe that wildlife is a dangerous and ferocious force. However, there are times when it provides a glimpse of tenderness that is hard to put into words. These two bear cubs clutching hands are a sight to behold. Two cubs were photographed by wildlife photographer Lewis Kemper, who was in the right spot at the right time.

Kemper, a 62-year-old photographer from California, was in Lake Clark National Park when he saw the cubs watching their mother forage for meals while holding hands. “I was leading a photographic tour around Lake Clark in Alaska earlier this month, when I observed a female and her two cubs waiting for her to come back with something to eat,” Lewis says. In this location, bears are accustomed to humans and don’t mind our presence. I was about 20 feet away from the two cubs. “

According to the photographer, there were two bears holding hands for about 20 seconds, but no food was brought back by their mother. Because of this, they hoped that their mother could come back with some fish for dinner. According to wildlife specialists, bears’ hunting success rate is only 10%.

Despite their fondness for fish, most bears’ diets consist primarily of vegetation. Even if bears are fond of salmon, most of them are omnivores who like vegetation, and, of course, a lot of grass, “Lewis says in an interview.

This isn’t the first time that cubs have been photographed holding hands, but they’re far from the only ones. “On the South African beach, a couple saw two penguins gripping their flippers, which went viral and won over millions of people’s heartfelt appreciation.
