THE CUTEST teddy bear brothers were captured playfighting and hugging each other in Martinselkonen, Finland.
Both four months old, these brown bear cubs can be seen having a feast with their mother and then with their bellies full, playing with each other.
Brown bears generally give birth to two to three cubs after pregnancy. They live with their mothers for up to three years, and then they’re usually ready to face life on their own.
These adorable images were captured by Valtteri Mulkahainen, a 63-year-old Gymnasium teacher and wildlife photographer from Finland.
“I was in a shelter over 160 feet away from the bear family when I snapped these pictures,” he said.
“I took these images using a Canon camera and a Canon 70-200/2.8 lens.
“I was fascinated by these little teddy bears. They looked like little children and behaved like them, too. It was endearing to watch.”
