The same reason any animal protects there offspring. Maternal instinct.
The world is a dangerous place for baby animals. Unless enough babies survive into adulthood, the specie would die out.
Animals have two ways of dealing with this, either have lots of babies, and hope that some survive by themselves. Fish and reptiles usually work this way.

Surprisingly, bears are usually scared of humans. Mother bears are cautious to protect their cubs from male bears, who will kill cubs if given the chance. Besides that, I don't think that bears are afraid of other animals, though they obviously are careful about hazards in the landscape (for example, cliffs).
No, except with a sow and her cubs. Grizzlies are solitary creatures and protect themselves, never each other.
