Just Missing Goldilocks was taken in the Great Bear Rainforest on October 4, 2014, and is only the second time I have come across a Grizzly Bear with three cubs. This image was captured while their mom continued to fish while prepping for a long winter ahead, and the cubs watched her (and us) from shore.

It was very cool watching these three Grizzly cubs as they all seemed to have different personalities. With one being very timid (hiding behind his sibling), and one being a bit more brave (off on his own) and the third cub seeming to be somewhere in the middle. And it always seemed like that cub off to the side was the first one to lead, or go off on his own.
