Pass on shots 2,3 and 6. Two of the shots are quartering toward you and the other has left leg back.

I wouldn't shoot. Seems like a smaller bear. I would wait for his daddy.

No on #2 and # 6, but yes on # 3 if left leg forward and he is just reaching , but no, if he is in motion.

I would not take 2 or 6

#3 looks like the left (facing) leg is forward...I guess if you were in the scene you would know for sure.

with my .338 I would take them all...at 200 yards!

No. 4 is the only shot I would take its the only shot that you can get both lungs without going through bone.
