Thankfully, the Rautiainen captured all these heart-warming moments.
“No-one can know exactly why or how the young wolf and bear became friends,” Rautiainen told the Daily Mail. “I think that perhaps they were both alone and they were young and a bit unsure of how to survive alone…It is nice to share rare events in the wild that you would never expect to see.”
