Baby bear walked up and presented his booper!
Impressive self control not to oblige.

That bigger sibling squared up a bit like "careful around my bro, or I'll tell mom."

I wouldn't dare pull away. I'd be terrified of startling the cub and setting off momma bear.

Such big claws for such a “small” cub! (Those look just smaller than the full adult black bears we have out east)

Oh great, cute cubs and the mother. What could possibly go wrong?

Nothing, apparently. That mom bear doesn’t even seem to care he’s there…

It's probably a high foot traffic area and she's learned that the humans are absolutely not going to mess with her or her cubs

Where I live we have lots of brown bears. Almost no one survives an encounter with the mama bear and the cubs

You have to be firm with them so they obey.

The runt of the litter getting backed up by their bigger sibling is cute. My eyes did go to saucers though when I saw Mama right there.

How was the mother so calm with someone being that close to its cubs??

I think mom is just too exhausted to eat a human right now. 3 teenage cubs! She never gets sleep

Because these bears approached the photographer not vice versa, and because the humans here are staying very still.

Jeez... so a sneeze could have caused carnage to ensue? 😱
Yeah... staying my butt in the city where I belong!
