BALANCING on top of a tree, this bear cub puts her climbing skills to the test. The one year old Eurasian brown bear cub, with the help of her mother and other siblings, scampers ten metres up the tree trunk, before perching on one of the branches. The nimble cub clings on with her claws as the tree wobbles back and forth. This adorable family bonding time was captured by Lithuanian photographers Dalia Kvedaraite, 35, and Giedrius Stakauskas, 38, on a visit to the Martinselkonen Nature Reserve, Russia.
