#AroundTheWorldIn8Days This Russian, Polar Bear Mom has one tough job. Only 42% of cubs live to the age of 12 months. Threats range from poachers and aggressive male bears to receding ice and lack of food. When her cubs reach the age of 2 1/2 she will then have to say goodbye, either chasing them away or abandoning them to strike out on their own. #Animals #Cute #Sad #PolarBears #Russia
