Shocking. Found another big bear

Kichi jogged along the canyon, his plan being to hunt back in the grassy area but there was no need for it.  This was no grizzly bear but a full-grown huffing polar bear.  The bear and wolf took a moment to stare at each other before the bear opened its mouth to let out a loud threatening roar.

Kichi glanced behind him where Torch had been following and saw the deer take a step back calmly to put some distance and ready to run if told to.  Kichi swung his gaze back to the polar bear and ran towards it.  The polar bear raised up on its hind legs, giving another roar before trying to drop down right on top of Kichi.

The wolf spun around the bear, biting into a back leg but a second later had to run back a short distance, rump tucked a bit to avoid getting those giant claws ripping into him.  Spinning to face the bear again he ran back towards it.
