Only 2 bears could get away with this....
Nice action series, Beth. The larger, more aggressive, cub is probably a male, while the other is probably a female. I have seen a sow knock an aggressive cub into the air and a roll down a step incline. That was in the interior, where food can sometimes be more scarce than it is at the coasts. It had been a lean spring and early summer when that mom taught the aggressor a lesson. When food is plentiful, at least the Kodiaks are not as aggressive toward the cubs.
What a great set of photos! Truly amazing.
Wonderful story. As always wonderful images.
Great captures! Kinda makes one feel sorry for the smaller bear that just watches.
