This week’s Village Wild video series, presented by Dietrich Law, captures a sweet family moment between a mother bear and her hesitant cub near Sault Ste. Marie.

Submitted by Cash Lajoie, the video shows a young bear cub clinging to a tree trunk while its mother and sibling wait below. The cub seems in no rush to listen, taking its time and looking around with wide-eyed curiosity rather than concern.

Its reluctance to follow mom’s lead offers a charming glimpse into just how young — and independent — this cub really is. Eventually, it begins a slow and cautious climb down to rejoin the rest of the family.
