Description of Photo
These two males are likely to be siblings. In June, they tend to eat about 100 pounds of sedge grass each day. In between eating, they appear to enjoy play fighting. Most of the time, their play fighting is simply wrestling and looks harmless. This photo caught a moment which looked more ominous, although neither bear was injured from this encounter.
