VIDEO: Infinitely Patient Mama Bear Tries To Get Cubs Across Road

I think we can all agree (especially mothers!) that mothers have the toughest job on earth.  The only thing more difficult than herding cats is herding babies. 

That's why the woman filming this video says that she's never related more to a bear. 

Filmed in Connecticut, this hilarious video will surely garner understanding nods from mothers and fathers who have kids that march to the beat of their own drum.  The mama bear in the video just needs to get her four rambunctious little cubs from one side of the road to the other.  But for that to happen she's got to carry some, get others to pay attention, and get yet more to follow directions. 

Over the course of the four-minute video the bear tries to pick them up by the nape of the neck and carry them part of the way, only to look back and discover the others aren't following, or even paying attention.  Then she's got to go back, make sure they see what's happening, and start all over again.  

And throughout the video there's one little cub who has the hardest time wrapping it's little bear noggin around what's happening.  Even as the rest of the cubs are safely on the other side, he's still trying to climb a telephone pole.
