    The motion of the ocean and the funky music perfect match. First time Steve was speechless.👍

    I got to witness the same thing a bunch of years ago. Very cool. I am always amazed by the tenderness they have for each other during this phase yet the male is perfectly willing and capable of killing cubs (not sure if they would kill their own) to free up a female for mating. Nature is amazing and tough.

    AWESOME! Congratulations on being able to deliver your comments with no more than a coy smile. Great content again. Heading your way in about ten days, just hope the bears are still accessible and the crowds are still manageable. Miss the good old days when April in the Tetons was you, a Ranger and two others along the roadside. Keep up the amazing work and thanks for sharing.

    Amazing to see mating at this time of the year, maybe this was just practise!! I've been told numerous times that actual development of the fetus waits till later in the year if the condition of the female is such that she has or is in condition to have a successful pregnancy . Perhaps this was just practise !!! Great footage none the less. Here in the Great White North, our famous grizzly "The Boss* was out and about around the end of February which is normal for him. Great video, take care.
