Sometimes, being sneaky tops being strong.
A Finnish wildlife videographer captured an awesome clip of animals at their best when some bears, birds, and a wolf, happened upon a carcass at the same time.
Naturally, the birds got there first and start taking some bites, but when the brown bears showed up, there was no denying who was top dog.
At least three big old brown bears showed up for their part of the dead animal, which we don’t see but I’m assuming is a deer of some sort.
One of them is able to rip off a good sized chunk and starts walking away to enjoy his dinner in peace, when a nosy wolf starts making his way over…
The bear is able to run the wolf off a time or two at first, naturally being the more physically dominant one, but the canine employs a strategy of brains over brawn, allowing the bear to drop the meat and chase him a bit, before sneaking around back, snagging the meat, and running for the hills.
Honestly, this bear isn’t one of the more intelligent ones around, as it took him a solid 30 seconds to realize he’d been hoodwinked. He took off after the wolf, but honestly there was no catching him with a head start like that.
Score one for the wolves.
