Description
On the inner bank on the right side of the Ani River, I confirmed a mother bear and two cubs. I found them while traveling along the river embankment road; when the mother noticed my presence, she stood up and threatened. At the same time the cub climbed a tree. The mother left immediately, but after confirming the mother's departure, the cub climbed down and followed the mother. The area was overgrown with weeds, so the bear's whereabouts could not be confirmed.
