Too Much To Handle
Without further hesitation, the mother bear leaped into the freezing water in the hopes that her babies would follow. They had not made much progress before it became evident that this mission was too much for the little cubs. This was an overwhelming struggle for ones so young and sensitive, but they did their best to clutch to their mother. Even wild animals can bite off more than they can chew.
Shocking Development
In the wild, animals are constantly forced to attempt unmanageable situations, and animal mothers must carry their babies through the worst kinds of threats, both geographical and predatory. It would soon be clear that this mother was way in over her head. Her cubs would not be able to match her pace, but she was already in the middle of the water, and couldn’t turn back now, so she had to make a tough decision. She decided that in order to save herself, she would have to let them go.
