Wild animals in addition to their familiar images of aggression and ferocity, they also have very ‘life’ moments that we do not always have the opportunity to admire.
Wildlife photographer Lewis Kemper, on a trip to Lake Clark National Park, located in the southwestern state of Alaska, USA, captured the adorable moment of a couple of cubs.
This is a place to visit that attracts tourists because of its wild beauty and diversity of flora and fauna because it is nestled around the majestic Chigmit mountain range. Here is Lake Clark which is the oldest and largest in the Chigmit Mountains area. Lake Clark is the most important breeding ground for North American salmon. Lake Clark Park is also known for its diverse geology including jagged peaks, granite peaks, dozens of glaciers, and hundreds of waterfalls. Because of the abundance of salmon, Lake Clark is a favorite destination for grizzly bears. Every July – September, the breeding season of salmon, a lot of bears will gather in this place to hunt.

Mr. Kemper said, while guiding a group of friends who are all photography enthusiasts around Lake Clark, he discovered a family of bears including a mother bear and her two cubs catching salmon. Perhaps accustomed to the appearance of humans in the area, when Kemper approached to take pictures of the two cubs, he was still carefree, relaxed, not bothered. Dip it in water to cool it down, but the cubs still can’t find food by themselves. Photo: Lewis Kemper. According to the photographer’s observation, while waiting for the mother bear to bring something to eat, the two cubs were too nervous and held each other’s hands for about 20 seconds. Immediately, Kemper “captured” those valuable moments. Contrary to the photographer’s “sweet fruit”, although sincerely waiting for the mother bear, as a result, the bear family still did not earn anything to put in their stomach. Wildlife experts say grizzly bears’ hunting success rate is relatively low, only about 10%. Eagerly holding hands to wait for the mother bear to bring back food.

Bears aren’t the first animals to get pictures of holding hands, showing genuine affection. Earlier, a couple took the famous photo of two penguins holding hands on a beach in South Africa. That magical moment moved millions of people on earth.
