Swimming bear family

A sow brown bear and her spring cubs, less than 6 months old were swimming in the Naknek lake in Katmai national park. While visiting Katmai national park I had the chance to see lot of brown bears, especially sow bears with cubs. This particular sow bear was fishing for salmons in the lake when its 3 cubs decided to tag along and follow their mother in line.
