Wildlife: Honorable Mention 2021 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This photo, of a young polar bear, was taken on a trip around Svalbard in the summer of 2020. A mother with two cubs rested at a long distance. After a few hours, they suddenly came walking all the way up to the boat and got up on two legs. A magic moment!
