North American Bears: Wapusk National Park, Manitoba, Canada: Polar Bear Roll II

This female polar bear has been in a den for several months, so when she comes out she likes to roll and rub in the snow. I think it is a combination of scratching an itch and cleaning herself. One of her babies can't resist temptation and goes for a ride.
