Surreal Moment Adorable Polar Bear Appears To Wave To Photographer In Alaska

The two polar bear cubs were craning to view another family of bears as they walked past. But to the photographer who took ti photo it appeared that one was waving directly at her. The curious cubs stood on their hind legs to watch the other family troop past when one of the young bears, who was struggling to balance, stuck out his paw.

She added: 'That day, our bear guide Ketil Reitan scanned the islands and noticed two families of bears, each with a mum and two cubs. 'From a distance he could see unusual behaviour, the mother bears were occasionally standing. 'He navigated the boat to the area and when we arrived he saw the reason - there was a huge male polar bear sleeping nearby.
