Why are Muk and Luk still small?
Okay. We all know about the cute polar bear cubs who in my opinion are more like large hamsters.
In the first cartoon Muk and Luk portrayed as bear cubs, which were abandoned by their parents (and their group) only because of the fact that they can not swim (yep, their mother is harsh). They are funny, kind and stubborn.

However, the goose Boris sheltered and raised them.
Polar bears mature in 2 years and leave the mother. Accordingly, Muk and Luk are yearling bear cubs (maybe younger).
Why am I saying this? Fact that has been held for three years, but our heroes are still little cubs. I mean what is before us 4-5-year-old bears that do not look like adults.

Why do not they have changed?
I want to show you some sketches that were used during the creation of the first film. We see here the adult polar bears. This means that in the original script the parents of Muk and Luk were shown.

Further, there is the reference, made by the character Kirby in Balto 3, that they are "mentally-challenged", which implies that their growth may have been stunted as well.
Again, the Balto movies are not nature documentaries. There was no intent to be painstakingly accurate with the design of the animals. They're cartoons. You have to stop over-thinking and over-analyzing cartoons.
