Upon closer look, these bears are in an alert posture,  and there is a sense of intensity. They've just detected danger.This grizzly sow, known as "Rosie" by the Hallo Bay Wilderness guides,  had just called her cubs close, preparing to fight or flee--whatever it  would take to protect her twins. Rosie was popping her jaw and making  low growling-type warning sounds at "Harvey," a large grizzly boar, who  was entering the meadow and headed in their direction. Boars are known  to kill cubs, and Rosie was taking no chances. The moment this  photograph captured this scene, she immediately moved her cubs out of  the meadow...and after hearing Rosie's mood, Harvey wisely did not  follow.</blockquote>
