Soul Sisters 3I2648

 

Brown bear cubs stay with their mothers for approximately 2 years. At about that time mom chases them off and they begin their lives alone. Some females will stay with their sibling sisters for quite a bit of time thereafter. Sometimes they will do so until it is time to have a litter of cubs of their own. These two young females are still together. When the salmon make a run in the river, a splash sets the action in motion. Even though one already has a prize catch, it’s hard for a bear to sit still when there is action in the water. Eventually, these two will go off on their own. If they have cubs of their own, their paths are not likely to cross. Should they meet again, years in the future, when neither has cubs of their own, a welcome rejoice and playful activity reminiscent of their days as cubs can ensue. #BrownBears
