Canids and Ursids Interactions

[Shadow]

This is quite funny video to watch from Romania. Two male brown bears and a wolf in same place and even though in description is said, that this wolf tries to provoke the bears, it looks like that this wolf is more playing around and having some fun. It isn´t interested of food and it has no hurry to leave the place either :)

At 1:10 it shows that it is cautious naturally, but then again it´s right back when it sees that bear didn´t really chase it. Then at 1:45 bear shows how relaxed it is and at 2:20 watch how that wolf waves its tail and acts just like a dog inviting another dog to play. 3:05 again it can be seen how it waves its tail playfully. Right after 4:10 bear again relaxes and rolls on the ground. And right after 4:40 it looks like the wolf would be considering if snapping other bears backside a bit :) 

This wolf, imo, was cautious but also playful and looks like that bears also understood it pretty much.
