Great footage im happy the cubs and momma got out safe! Male grizzly don't just want to eat the cubs its to get mommabear into heat again. So she wil carry his offspring. Lions do it too.
@@bradjosephs awww... thank u. Made my day.
Awww she's so tiny compared to the male, what a good momma.
I was thinking the same thing! She was definitely brave going up against him.
Some of us humans could only wish to have a Mommy like that! She was half his size and was not going to back down! Amazing!
These cubs could only wish to have a mother that would care for them for 18 years. Instead of 18 months.
you can go to Katmai Alaska and join their mommy
Sadly human women don't have a chance against men
@@zoocepierce4556 female brown bears have no chance against healthy male brown bears either. He did not try to fight her at all. Its like a female human who is allowed to hit males but they cannot hit back or they are arrested.
Where are your parents? There’s no chance you’re older than 12 years old talking about “wish to have a mommy like that!🤓”.. u good? Sounds like u were abandoned by both ur parents and left in an orphanage 😂
Nothing is as fierce as a mother protecting her babies, no matter the species.
Except for humans
@@joshscott3184 Some human mothers are weak cowards when it comes to their mate. But most mothers will protect the young.
Except in the human species. Not all mothers are very protective as a mother bear is.
Because they're not BEARS they're human. But most mother's WILL give their life for their children@@thatguyjoe007
Some mommas are. Not human mommas so much.
Mom may be small but she has a big heart! She is the epitome of “🤬 around and find out!”
Just remember ppl. That male bear was also a baby bear that had a mother. Those cubs will do the same thing when grown
@@rayromano6249, soooo what are you saying? I shouldn’t feel happy when the mother successfully rebuffs a male bear who wants to turn her family into cub sandwiches. I am a little confused.
Moma was so small next to him. She held her own, tho. I hope her and the babies are safe.
Fighting on that steep cliff exhausted both of them.
I wonder if they were able to get any more film of mother getting her cubs back
She held her own, simply because the male had no interest in hurting her. If he wanted to he could have killed her in the blink of an eye.
Don't create false feminist narratives , he wanted the cubs once they disappeared he stopped fighting. It wasn't the fighting skills of the moma that made him leave .
Male bears fight with bears their own size let alone a skinny mother .
Bears are cannibals that moma was lucky they were on a hill top , on flat land she might have ended up as his meal .
Sounds like you might be getting your male chauvinist in you in a tizzy. If the male bear was that hungry, and seems not to be, then momma would be dead too. And male bear didn't quit lookin. He just quit fighting because it wasn't worth getting hurt fighting with momma. So yea the momma gave him a run for his money and he backed off. Didn't quit but backed off. I'm sure he heard cub still squalling that's why he went to back side .
That’s that mamma bear protecting her cubs! That’s why as women when we see this we really can feel it. We know that love and protecting for ours. ❤hope babies are ok
Give us a break 😅
What do you need a break from? I was just sharing something I was feeling. Sorry if that made you uncomfortable.
He is huge and trying to get a snack...best momma bear ever
"As women"??
Like men were chasing children to eat them, and activate the processus of oestrus in females, to mate and assure its genetic hegemony?
We, primates are very different. In our species, infanticides are more often committed by females/women.
The comparaison with a female urside is irrelevant in terms of behavior, but flattering and empowering for sure.
Not saying that there are no great human mothers, there are plenty, Just that the fathers are generally not cannibals( unlike bears.)
She’s incredibly brave and relentless. I’m breathless watching her. Magnificent mum and I’m relieved to read her cubs are safe.
You do realize that the male bear could have killed her at will and in the blink of an eye. The only reason he didn't is because he had no interest in it.
@@CRAZYHORSE19682003 That makes her bravery even bigger.
@@CRAZYHORSE19682003wow thanks captain obvious
Si totuși de ce se bat!?@@CRAZYHORSE19682003
@@CRAZYHORSE19682003 Not always. I've seen moms tear down the big boys in areas like this. On level ground though, they're outmatched. That's why the females are smart enough to use their braìns and move higher, and the makes are dùmb enough to follow. Moms use these cliffs to knock them back and occasionally off the cliff. Sometimes they go together, sometimes mama watches an overconfident male splatter.
The scenery is amazing its like a drawing.
@@ageofechochambers9469 like a bob ross painting 😂
Absolutely amazing footage! Poor Momma Bear; so brave though.
I know one cub survived, I’ll go in tomorrow to check on her.
@@bradjosephs Don't know about the other one that went to the right? God, that male was huge. Mama wasn't big, but she was fierce. Love your videos. Watched for YEARS.
Omg that was a huge male 😢 go momma she fought
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏thanks@@bradjosephs
@@bradjosephs Thank you what a horror
Wait a darn minute, you stopped the video too soon. We want to see both cubs back with mom and she’s leading them completely out of harm’s way.
They’re fine
It's life not Disney
1 agree with you
This isn't a movie script. Unfortunately, nature is unforgiving.
@@Skin-deepInk Nature is metal
Best momma bear video that I have ever seen
Thank you
Hope mom found her cubs safe.
Yes!!!!this is Nature. Maternal Instinc🙏.My blood pressure has increased😮. Greetings from Europe. Kiki
the cub on the right went up and around the back of the cliff and down to the left
Yes, I think the cub that fell is the missing one.
Bears are magnificent creatures but another level of TERRIFYING! Thank you for sharing.👋
This is the epitome of motherhood!!❤❤❤
Yes.
It’s nice that the mother bear protects her children.
Very nice.
But let’s not be too forgetful of everything in ascertaining such a statement.
What am I talking about?
Simply this.
I recently watched a video on UA-cam which show cased a lady hiking with her daughter in Alberta.
Unfortunately the two ran into a mother grizzly with two cubs.
The human mother and daughter wasn’t hurting the grizzly or cubs.
But the mother grizzly tore the human mother and her 11 year old daughter to pieces simply because they were in her vicinity in the wilderness.
So?
Is the mother bear the epitome of mother hood there too?
And often times a mother bear will kill another mother of another terrestrial species and that molecular species babies too in order to feed the bears young.
So?
Is that too the epitome of mother hood?
Or or
Is Mother Nature possibly just simply crazy?
At times?
In this existence?
In setting up such a scenario?
That way.
In this life.
Hey🤫it’s just a question.
В России с момента развала СССР материнство сделало более 300 млн. абортов.
Вдумайтесь в цифру. 300 млн. детей были разорваны на части с подачи своих же матерей.
Это все что нужно знать о материнстве.
@@user-jz4tf5cj9r а че не 300 млрд?🤡
@@vinnievenus3570must be nice having so much time on your hands to yap paragraphs in comments all day
@@vinnievenus3570it’s not really motherhood but humans like to place human emotions and culture onto animals. The grizzly bear is doing what she instinctively does - aggressive defence.
get lost, Boar! Mama Grizzly in on guard 🐻
Boar ? 😂
@@RegisIdec The term "boar" is used to refer to adult male bears.
(MOTHER OF THE YEAR) BY FAR. (FEARLESS), YOU CAN ONLY HOPE, HUMAN MOTHERS WHERE LIKE THAT.❤❤❤.
This is one of the most amazing videos I've ever seen of bears and the maternal instinct. Thank you so much. Keep doing what your doing and I'll keep watching.
Wow! Thank u! I will try
Beautiful bears, good tough mama. Those females are smart. They take that high ground fir a reason. They know theyre outmatched by big males. I've seen dozens of fights with moms and nakes go up mountains like this. Mamas know they can suddenly launch at the trailing males, and occasionally they'll knock them down the mountain. Unfortunately they sometimes go with them.
Wow. That was really crazy. What a fearless little Momma (compared to him)!
Last week we were there. Encountered a mother with two cubs. A male was chasing them. The cruelty of nature.
They're cute, cuddly, and extremely durable. Our cubs use quality manufacturing. Scrapes scuffs, drags, falling out of trees. These bear cubs will last a life time
People who have spent time in the bush understand the ruggedness of animals. They can even poke their eyes in ways we can't. I've seen squirrels fall from trees from 20 feet and get back up. They even seem to fall in such a way as to not break anything
That was funny him trying to scare her and call her bluff like do you not realize the force you’re messing with😂☠️
damn male bear is just salivating at the idea of eating 2 cubs
I just looked for the mom and cubs, will post an update and little infanticide discussion shortly.
Он все таки убил медвежонка. ?
Second one, right side one apears in the left upper coner for the millisecond on 0:23, pls check. Then the male beare go that side
oh my good my hard sinks love to this mother and babies i am uffff god bless them
🫶❣️ Great video and amazing impressions ‼️Congratulations to the creator of the video ❣️
Thank you so much!!
Woww,the best mama bear,,,,very strong and BRAVE👍👍😊
He was like 3 times her size but she scared him off anyway :)
Thank you for this incredible video. I live in Yellowstone for the summer (working).
Actual footage of me when you mess with mine😂. Up against him, Mama was tiny but mighty! Don't play with her babies. He better think twice next time
Gosh you picked the right place to catch this type of activity is very unusual to catch. I hope the Cub is O.K.
Cameraman never dies....
Oh my heart! I was afraid for a moment it was Grazer and her cubs. this was amazing footage Brad, thank you so much for showing raw nature. Its not pretty thats for sure. Did she ever find the 2nd cub I wonder.
I’m heading out there now to look for her
Grazer is far lighter in color last I seen her yesterday on the live cams. Also looks bigger.
I freaked thinking sane thing
I thought it was Grazer as well! uuugghh!
@@bradjosephs you sir are a coy hero!💚
Imagenes impactantes!!
Gracias desde cataluña españa,saludos
Amazing footage.
Mama bear is clear, no messing around to the much bigger male.
Saw tails of bears, for the first time.
Man, she is a fighter!
Momma is so small compared to the male. But what a force to reckon with
Amazing video!… the other cub ran off and over the hill, it went to the other side of the cliff. Where the male bear went. ❤️🌱🌱🌱
Incredible video footage ‼️Thanks for your patience in filming this video‼️Mama bear 🐻 said NOT my babies ‼️🤬
Baby #1 just nopes out and goes for the quick escape by tumbling down the hill to safety.
Whoa! She is so much smaller than him but you know she’s never going to give up
The one cub went up and around the back and then down left side. You can see a glimpse of it before it heads down to the cub that fell
Timestamp please?
@MJ-dh6zx as soon as the cub on right runs up and out of sight, look to the top left and you can see him go by
@@MJ-dh6zx 23 seconds the time play stamp
That male is huge and the mama looks so small 😢
Yes I can see the glimpse of the other cub going down the left, but that’s ALSO where the male bear goes so is there any update if it survived? Did any of the people taking the video actually see the second cub again. There should definitely be an update here.
In the wild, if you try to go that far to do a dirty deed, you're risking your health.
If you get injured, you could starve to death.
Mom will fight to the death for that cub.
I hope he realizes that he's betting his life on that cub.
She said not my babies. She was biting him hard.
“I think ive done a pretty good job” lol
You didn’t like that? Lol
Enjoyed it very much! Thanks for being there.
Храбрая медведица!
I think he got the other one that went over the peak.
Thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching
Mama's are always fearless in protecting their kids .
Incredible footage! Thanks for sharing!
Great job Brad! Unbelievable content.
Thank you! 🧸🐻🐻🐻
I will also post an edited version of the fight shortly.
Thanks guys for the interest in bears!
I couldn't find an answer. Does anyone know about the other cub?
That Bear expert can speak Bear Language
Beautiful footage, you guys are amazing and so brave!❤
Never mess with mah mama, aight!!
Brave mama bear to take on a boar almost twice her size just to protect her babies. Mama bears deserve mother of the year awards.
That was some great footage. Amazing❤
I was thinking she would bite the big male’s foot. One cub went UP the hill !!
Pretty sure he got one cub. At 2:27 you can see him going for something 😢
Nope. Look at about the 2:57 mark...the man says that both cubs are at the bottom. Apparently, people were concerned, so there is other video or commentary somewhere that both cubs and mom were safe.
There wasn't any blood on his muzzle.
Thank you for a video that is long enough to see and follow a situation for a bit. I hope both cubs made it ok. To the male: Go fish!
I love these bears.
If you see this comment, I want to thank you for living with me on the same planet. You are not alone in this world. I hope this comment can please at least one person. This is all I want and I wish you health ♥
I am pleased by it. Thank you!
Incredible. ❤
Great footage! Thanks for posting it!
Grazer is at Brooks River with her two litlles
coy
It’s definitely not 128 Grazer but I wonder who it is ❤ poor Mumma
This is quite an awesome video. Many people are complaining that you ended the video early - they don’t know how it works in real life! Sometimes the cub could be lost for hours or 1-2 days even, before reuniting with mom, and surviving by climbing up a tree and staying there. Sometimes, the cub falls victim to the bear further away. Shows how incredibly shallow people are nowadays, expecting all videos to be like the movies or something.
I am a photographer that lives near the East Gate to Yellowstone. Our Boars typically do not "eat" the babies, as the babies are always just found dead later, not consumed. The boars will seek them out and kill them so the sow goes back into heat.
Nope. They eat them. And this behavior has been viewed many times in September and October, and we have also seen females do it. It takes 2 weeks for the female to come back into estrus, and there is no way he will be the only male to benefit, plus being mid July, it’s too late for her to come into estrus.
You’re both correct.
@@davidcohen6426 Yep, I was thinking the same thing.
You are correct. Even in Katmai the boars that have killed cubs don't always eat them when there's salmon around. If this was September or October they would probably eat them but the instinct to kill them still may not be for the sole intent of getting a meal. Anyone who tells you why they do what they do without question is just up in their own ego because even the behavioral scientists will tell you that there could be many reasons and they don't know for sure. (If the boars ALWAYS ate the cubs then there would be no question but they don't.) Some of them suggest that it may be a way to keep the competition down before it ever gets up, like natural population control. We just don't know because bears can't talk. lol
@@roximama I've seen them kill cubs, especially the little ones. I think it's human nature to think we can translate any animals behavior into human understanding. But what I've seen is they take them like a little toy n toss them away. That's been my humble experience. When Mamas return w/o their cubs the following year, it's really upsetting because then we just don't know anything n everyone is hungry.
"Waaah where happy ending?"
In the movies. This is nature.
Nature: the grand and terrible.
nice mom😃🥰hope cubs are ok✌️
Great job with the recording, stayed on point. Ive seen some pretty bad videos lately and the photographers were all over the place. Subbed! ☺️
Thank you! It’s tough when hand holding a big lens
@@bradjosephs I know the feeling all to well, I have a 500mm nikon lens. What do you use?
When the cub fell..omg...I got scared...I hope mama is back with the 2 cubs
Oh, man… what a nail biter! But good job on you for capturing this moment! Nothing beats life/nature documentaries 🐻 💚
I think evolution screwed mama bear over, when it comes to size disparities. I definitely think she would’ve benefited from being larger in size compared to the males. One example I can think of, where this is true: birds of prey 🦅
Tenacity and fearlessness goes a long way to keep those cubs alive, but muscle mass helps out too.
Nice footage. I wish my x had that instinct! 🇺🇸♾️😎
Oh my. What did you use to capture such a clear video? Beautiful
Sony A1, 200-600 lens
Brad we need an update....are the babies alright. How is mom.
This just happened last night, I’m heading out there now to look for her.
Any update on the two cubs? TY@@bradjosephs
Here is a quote from my friend and bear expert Drew Hanilton.
“ There are lots of reasons infanticide happens in bear populations but sexual selection is the least likely reason. There are many reasons it doesn’t make sense: seasonal hormone patterns/limited breeding seasons: with essentially a month to mate does it make sense spending 10-14 days waiting for a female to come back estrous? Geographic distribution: bears can be far ranging creatures, if infanticide occurs outside mating season what are the odds those two bears will be in the same place for mating season?
Why would a female commit infanticide? That happens more than people thibnk.
I could go on and on.
It is like it was written up in a paper in 1975 and perpetuated through grad student lit reviews for 50 years.
People need to put some weird perverted twist on it and ignore the most obvious reasons: predation, rank and hierarchy dynamics, and the fact that family groups frequently run from other bears.
Bears are hard on other bears, that is a fact, and if you are the smallest, weakest, bear you won’t survive some of the situations larger bears would.”
@@bradjosephs You should pin this comment to the top.
@@DD214productions YES! :-D That's a fabulous quote, covering all the angles. But then someone would question what makes Drew an expert. LOL
Do you happen to see if the mother was reunited with the 2nd cub? Wonderful video of bear behavior. Thank you for sharing!
@@l.a.keller In his last report he indicated the cubs n Mom had not been seen yet, but still seemed optimistic.
@@bradjosephs 🙏👍. Very good. Thanks. Take care. Kiki
She doesn’t really have to win a fight to the death with the male, just convince him it isn’t worth the energy expenditure and potential injury to go through her. But if he got to the cub she would have to concede.
My heart broke when I saw that cub fall off the side 🥺🙁 poor little boo bear 🐻
Hell hath no fury, like a woman's scorn!
Did the mom get her cubs? Thanks for sharing.
Very nice Brad
One Love!
Which bears are these? That's not Grazer. She's kicked the crap out of the biggest and baddest. Everyone has gotten Grazered at one point.

During the intermissions of bear fights, they always start panting and moving their heads back and forth like, "what the hell are we doing, this pretty stupid isn't it..."
I can't watch after 0:40...Tell me, were the children able to survive?
😨 почему у большинства животных, только мать растит и защищает своих детёнышей?...😢 Всё сохраняется благодяря матерям 💖✨️
are both of cubs safe at the end? they are so cute and i worried about them
Good job momma bear
Mamma is so small compared to the male...momma is tough though

The last time I saw anything like this was in Spain of which they both fell off a cliff and died.
Where in Spain?
Yes you did a good Job and picking up this is very unusual master piece . How many videos of a sow protecting her Cubs in a near death situation is not many. I think this one tops the best . I can only find maybe 10 on you tube simular to this very clear action. they are hundreds of you tube videos with boars and sows fighting but not on a cliff with cubs involved. this can stand next to the boar attacking a sow on a rocky mountain clif with both falling 150 so feet and boar not serviving . another one where a boar nocks a cub off the rocky clif falling to its death. sow found it and finding a safe place for it not relizing it was all ready dead. Nature tell us we are living for the limmit and the strongest servive. religion contradicts it left and right it seems.
