Black Bear and Cub

Waterton National Park, Canada

Mama Bear teaching her cubs how to stop traffic and cross the road. The other cub is just a few feet behind her. A simple plan, walk down to the side of the road, when the traffic stops to take pictures, cross. Works like a charm.

Aaaaaah, the old "Bear Jam" trick, straight out of the Universal Tourist Bear Manual! LOL Our Smoky Mtn. bears use the same technique. This is wonderful, Breland, and your narrative makes it even better. Vote
Best to you,
Dick:)
