Cuddles. Alaska: THESE CUTE images show two of the fluffiest cubs rolling around with their bear-mused mum. One image shows two fluffy bear cubs playing with their mother in the grass while they frolic in a victorious attempt at getting their mother to join in. Alaska Penisula brown bears are among the larges brown bears in the world, standing up to four feet tall and weighing up to 899 pounds. These images were taken by naturalist guide and photographer Brad Josephs (47) at Katmai National Park in Alaska, Sony A9. ?When mother bears have two or three cubs, they spend very little time playing with cubs, as the cubs get grief play time in amongst themselves,? said Brad. ?When a female has a single cub, like in this image, the mother is the sole playmate for the cub, and spends a few hours each day playing. ?Play behaviour is integral in the cubs social development, as they learn how fight and show affection, both of which are important skills during their lives. ?Bears and people can get along, if the person shows respect, calm demeanour, and understands bears. ?Humans and bears often get injured or killed in confrontations, but it is usually the fault of the mediadrumimages/BradJosephs
