Is Brownie the bear cub a bully?

The wrestling and playing by the bear cubs continued on and on. In this video, Brownie bit Blackie on the back as they relaxed in the water.

Then Brownie reared up as Blackie also rose.

Brownie used her greater strength and size to pounce on Blackie.
To be honest, I'm feeling just a little sorry for Blackie - I think that Brownie is a bit of a bully. Now I understand why Blackie is staying so close to Mom a lot of the time. I hope that mom defends him and that he gets a lot to eat and catches up to Brownie in size.

Check out the short video.
