01:I love you, Mum: The cub snuggles against its mother as the pair appear to take a little nap in the powdery Arctic snow
02: Peekaboo: The mother polar bear and her cub just outside their snow den, pausing as the newborn takes in the great wide world for the first time
03:It's spring! The cub's excitement at the brand new world is obvious to see
04:Cuddles: The mother playfully nips at the cub as they frolic in the snow. The cub is believed to be about three months old
