Along the coast of Hudson Bay, polar bear cubs depend entirely on their mother for warmth, protection, and nourishment in their first years. As the sun rises, the cubs wake, stretch, and press close to nurse while she scans her surroundings. Captured by Martin Gregus Jr. @mywildlive, this moment shows how even at rest, a mother polar bear remains watchful over her cubs.

Video by @awais.ali.sheikh | An Atlantic puffin gathering grass for its nest suddenly dropped everything after spotting its partner flying overhead. It instinctively launched into a joyful courtship ritual by tossing the grass aside and sharply lifting its head and beak toward the sky. This tender moment unfolded at Látrabjarg, Iceland, one of Europe’s highest sea cliffs and a vital breeding ground where puffins return year after year. This video was featured in our @natgeoyourshot #NatGeoYourShotPOY25 challenge.
