Seals breach the water for oxygen every 30 minutes, so mama polar bear and her cubs need to wait by an open ice hole for quite some time.

The mama polar bear teaches her cubs a valuable lesson in hunting – patience. She does this by showing her cubs how to be still while the prey has not yet come up.

Although the female cub tries to pretend she is taking the lesson seriously, she can”t help but doze off while lying beside her mama.

Without any effort of pretending to care about the lesson, the male cub enjoys making snowballs on another side of the glacier, but little does he know that a great surprise is about to come up in a short while.

It’s as if the little male cub had a tiny heart attack when the seal suddenly pops its head out of a nearby ice hole, causing the baby polar bear to stumble back in surprise.

People Couldn’t Contain The Cuteness
