A mother bear and her two cubs lived in a big park. Many other animals lived there too. They could all go anywhere they pleased in the parked and no one ever hurt them. One day the mother bear took her cubs for a walk in the woods. She wanted to teach them how to find food. She went sniffing along the ground, with the cubs behind her. Now and then she would turn over an old log. so that the cubs could find bugs and worms to eat. All at once the mother bear grunted to the cubs in her gruff voice. They both stopped and were very quiet. The mother bear stood up on her hind legs.

My, how very tall she was, she was taller than a big man. For a minute, she kept very still. Then she turned round and round, sniffing and sniffing as she turned. Mother bear smelled something very good, her nose told her that there was a picnic not far away. She grunted softly, telling the cubs to follow her. Then she began to walk so fast that he cubs could hardly keep up with her. At the top of the hill, the mother bear stopped and looked below. She grunted to the cubs again and started slowly down the hill.

The cubs thought it would be great fun to fun down the hill, but as they started to run. mother bear gave them each a hard blow with her big paw and pushed them behind her. She knew they would fall if they ran. you see, it is hard to bears run down hill, because their hind legs are longer than their front ones.
