Polar Bear Cub, With Feather *in explore*

            Young male Polar Bear (Ursus maritimus) amuses himself with a simple toy - a bird's feather - while his mother and his sister snooze. This cub picked up the feather, carried it in his mouth up on the log, and let it drop and fly down in the wind, several times. He got a kick out of it. His mother and sister were unimpressed. 

Kaktovik, Barter Island, Arctic Alaska.
