A Colorado Springs motorist has captured footage showing three bear cubs trying to scale a rock wall in order to join momma bear.
In the KKTV 11 News footage, captured by Jeremy Johnson, momma black bear has already scaled the wall and is encouraging her cubs to follow.
But the roadside wall is steep and the tiny cubs are new at climbing.
Momma bear seems to realizes this, and is about to descend the wall when one cub safely scrambles up and over.
This seems to inspire the other cubs, one of which follows the route taken by the first cub.
Rooting them on, Johnson says in the video, “Come on little guys, you can do it. Climb! Climb!”
Mission accomplished, the bear family continues its adventure safely off the road, albeit in somebody’s yard.

“So smart. That second one saw where the first one went and moved there. This is so cute. Nothing like life in the Springs.”
