Bear and Wolf Unite for Ten Days to Hunt and Share Prey
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – Finnish photographer Lassi Rautiainei, 56, goes into the woods until he finds something worth watching and recording. Thanks to such naturalists, we sometimes learn about somewhat unusual things in the animal or plant kingdom.
And in fact, he found something worthy of being watched and recorded: the unusual friendship between a wolf and a bear.
As soon as he saw the two socializing, he began to capture the moment, which turned out to be several moments.
They spent the nights together, until dawn, for ten consecutive days. When the friendship apparently ended, the photographer left.
The hunts would last from 8 PM to 4 AM. The two of them would share the food, rest for a while and even play a little.
According to the photographer, this is the first time this phenomenon is observed.
It is hard to know exactly how they became friends. The photographer believes that they found each other when they were young and eventually grew up together.
