It takes some guts to hand-feed a polar bear, but that’s exactly what these Soviet soldiers did. This picture was snapped in the Chukchi Peninsula in the Soviet Union. In this harsh environment, the temperature can did to 25-degrees below zero and the snow can be so deep that animals have a hard time finding food. This polar bear mama and her cubs were facing starvation until the soldiers fed them tin cans of condensed milk, an item they had in abundance. The mama bear licked the milk from the can and fed some to her cubs. Near starvation must have mellowed this polar bear. A mother polar bear protecting her young is among the most dangerous animals on the planet.
