Almighty Zarquon do those cubs push my “cute” button. And it would be such a bad idea to step out there and attempt to help her get them herded across.

Those are some patient drivers.

The impatient drivers would have been cited by the Winchester (CT) Police Department (visible in the last 6 seconds of the video.)

Bear Cub Slapstick. My father worked for the U.S. Forest Service in the Sequoia National Park during summer break in college, and they gave him a horse, a mule, and gear and sent him out to help surveying and tree counting. (He rode the mule and packed the horse) One day he was passing through a stand of trees towards a meadow and heard a loud slapping noise ahead. Shortly he came towards the edge of the forest but hung back in the shadows - the loud noise was a mamma bear whacking the heck out a tree stump to shake grubs out for her two cubs to eat. My father waited patiently, then the wind changed, and mamma bear stopped and raised her nose. She could smell my father and the mule, but bears’ eyesight isn’t the greatest, so she couldn’t distinguish them in the deep shade.She made a loud grunt and one of the cubs ran off immediately to a nearby treee and climbed right up. The other cub was standing there looking around. Mamma bear grunted again and whacked the cub with an open paw and sent it rolling in a little ball towards the tree, and it kept right on running after it came out of the little ball and climbed fast up that tree. Mamma bear waited a while and then gave another grunt, so the cubs climbed down and they all left the meadow. My father waited a while before he entered the meadow, just in case.
