Adorable Polar Bear Cubs Hide and Squeal Behind Their Mom After Spotting Tiny Hare — Watch!

Mar. 15, 2025

These polar bear cubs had a sweet, scaredy-cat moment, and mom was there to save the day.

“She leads them into a new world of sights, sounds, and scares,” Renner narrates as the furry family paws across the snow.

“One day, they’ll grow up to be the world’s most powerful land predator,” Renner says as the polar bear cubs catch sight of the hare.

The mother bear lets the hare bounce away before continuing her trek with her cubs.

As Renner notes in the clip, the polar bear mom will help her cubs grow into strong, fearsome predators, “but not today.”

Before the cubs become brave like mom, they must learn to hunt and survive in the Arctic.
