While tigers are known for their patience, this young tiger mother proved her endurance after enduring persistent provocations from her newborn cubs.

The energetic Bengal tiger cub was seen running around crazily while scratching and jumping on its mother as she tried to rest in the sun.

A surprising lesson from photos revealing that tigers’ maternal instincts are no different from ours, recently recorded at a zoo in Russia.

To his mother’s obvious annoyance, the newborn cub practiced jumping on her head in Russia.

Other images show the puppy playfully stopping his play as he continues to climb onto his mother’s face and snuggle up to her.

The cub slapped his mother in the face as he walked past her, seemingly taunting her with her antics.

The lively bear cub climbed up to challenge the crows to fly down to the Novosibirsk Zoo in Russia to see a rare wild animal, one of two newborn crows.

Russian photographer Alexander Lukin, 31, captured this hilarious moment during one of the puppy’s rare appearances with his mother.

“Tigers don’t have much of a chance to survive in the wild,” he said.

‘In the picture we only see one puppy, but there are two puppies. This was almost the first time the puppy appeared with his mother Zaya, who had just started taking the dog out.

‘This child is very playful and curious.’

The cubs, still untamed, jumped on their mother’s back as she became increasingly upset.

After several minutes of continued agitation, the mother finally lost her temper and growled firmly (right).
