Head Fur Heights: Hiding Bear Cubs Climb Tree
These photographs show four adorable bear cubs climbing for safety as an alpha male approaches them.
Fearing for her cub's lives the mother bear urges them to scramble up the nearest tree trunk while she keeps watch on the ground.
The dramatic scene was snapped by photographer Lauri Tammik in woods in north Finland.
She explained that alpha bears have been known to kill bear cubs in order to mate with their mother.
When the female brown bear made a sound with her mouth her obedient cubs scampered to the top of a fir tree in the Martinselkonen nature reserve.
The 46-year-old from Estonia said: "The mother bear made a warning cry that danger was approaching and rushed her cubs to a tree.
"When the male bear came closer the mother bear started to snarl to scare him away from the cubs."
Eventually when the coast was clear the cubs nervously climbed back down in a circular movement but not before they had looked all around to check the predator was gone.
Before being disturbed the bear cubs had been play-fighting under the watchful eye of their mother.
The brown bear is the national animal of Finland where the scene took place.
