Are bears and moose friends?

Rarely are moose and bears interact with each other, they often occupy the same spaces but do not care for each other. This moose cow and young female bear, however; chased each other as the moose cow crossed into the inlet. Like a dance, one would chase the other until they both retreated into the dense Alaskan bush. When we first saw the moose enter the inlet, we weren’t sure what she would do and if you ask Lianna, she is more weary of Moose than bears because Moose have quicker tempers. She was inherently curious, as she would play with the bear, she would turn and look at us, taking a few steps forward. We made sure that we had an exit strategy in case she wanted to play with us too, the skiff running, engine ready!
