Taken near Churchill. Ice on Bay not yet frozen. Mum with 2YO cubs. She will leave them on the ice in a couple of months when she goes into estrus. Even though the young male appears almost her size, times will be really tough for both of the cubs out on the ice. Not yet big and fast enough to hunt seal on their own. No mum to feed them. Just have to hang around other bears - but not close enough to piss them off - and hope to get table scraps. Young female cub won't be mature and ready to breed until maybe 5 or 6. Cheers,Andrew
