During a bear-knuckle boxing match, this little cub couldn’t conceal his anguish as he was smacked in the face by his sibling.
During the rough and tumble play fight, the siblings gave as much as they could at the Cabarceno Wildlife Park in Spain.
Jeffrey Van Daele, a Belgian nature and wildlife photographer, was on hand to capture the adorable series of images as the cubs wrestled in the grass.
“I’m typically not an action photographer, and my primary goal in photography is trying to create beautiful photos,” he noted.
“But I must say it was a joyful and moving moment as I watched these cubs playfully fighting.”
