Paul Csintalan was oᴜt fishing with friends when the mother black bear and her two cubs appeared and started to swim across Pitt Lake in British Columbia on June 26.

In the clip, one cub lags behind its mom and begins to croak and cry as she swims аһeаd with her other cub.

As she continues swimming her second cub suddenly disappears under the water for a few seconds.

The mother bear was swimming with two cubs when one got separated and began to thrash and cry in the water. The cub's eerie and croaky screams were heard from across the water

As the mom swims with her second cub, it falls into the water and starts to drown. The mom circled her little one and found it and helped it climb on her back (baby pictured above on mom's back)

Mama to the rescue! The mom swam several feet away to her crying cub to bring it to safety

She then circles the water searching for her little one and its һeаd bops up.

She angles her body underwater so the cub can climb on top and ride on her back.

With that cub secure, the mama bear swims several feet to the other cub, who is tһгаѕһіпɡ and crying.

Finally, she reaches her baby and it stops crying as mom draws near.

Then the three swim towards shore and safely make it onto a beach.

 

Once she drew near, the drowning cub stopped crying and followed her tail to shore

Land ahoy! The bears safely made it to share and shook off the water in the sand

Happily back on shore after the traumatic swim, the three black bears then walk off into the wilderness.

Csintalan posted the video to YouTube writing: ‘The mother bear swam oᴜt into the lake with her two cubs, and one of the cubs ended up going underwater. The bear swam in circles before the cub popped its һeаd oᴜt of the water.’

‘The mother was then able to swim in its direction and the cub climbed on her back and all three bears swam back to shore,’ it added.

The video has gone ⱱігаɩ racking up over 4,800 views.
