PLAY FIGHTING BEAR CUB TRIPLETS

Trading blows and brawling in the grass, two Kamchatka brown bear cubs go paw-to-paw while their sibling referees their playfight. With the adorable cubs distracted, the mother bear has time to fish for dinner as her brood scamper around the enclosure in Hagenbeck Zoo in Hamburg, Germany. Wildlife photographer and engineer Yosuke Tani, 33, captured the delightful scene during a visit to the German zoo. Yosuke, who lives in Osaka, Japan, says: “Bear cubs are extremely playful.
