How long does the cub stay with its mother polar bear?

Answer 1

2 Years Only! A polar bear is born in the late fall/early winter and sleeps through hibernation with its mother polar bear during the winter. The polar bear is wakes up in the spring, and at first it can not see or hear, and does not have fur until a year after it is born. After this year passes, the cub still stays with the mother for 1 more year, so that the mother can teach the cub how to hunt, make a den, and survive in the wild. When this is done, 2 years have passed since the cub was born and the polar bear cub only stays with its mom for 2 years.
