This is a short in the Silly Symphonies series which was produced by the Disney studio. There will be spoilers ahead:
Like most of the early Silly Symphonies, this is an essentially plot less cartoon, so for the short to be successful, something has to take the place of a story. This short is successful because the animation is good, the character development is excellent and it's a cute, charming short because you care about the bear cubs.
Two bear cubs wake up in a cave and begin to fight, which disturbs a rather mean and larger bear, which growls at them. They leave the cave and a short bit shows them roughhousing, until they find berries, which the larger bear eventually takes over, and then some bees, which lead them to their hive.
The cubs start eating honey, which is noted by a bee. The ending is telegraphed a mile away, but the animation is so good that it's still enjoyable even though you know what's going to happen.
This short is available on the Disney Treasures More Silly Symphonies DVD set and is well worth tracking down. Recommended.
