In a storyline better befitting a melodrama than a popularity vote, Grazer won her second Fat Bear Contest Tuesday by defeating the male behemoth that killed her cub this summer.

Grazer beat Chunk by more than 40,000 votes cast by fans watching live cameras of Alaska’s Katmai National Park and Preserve.

    Oh motherfucker. Had I known, I would’ve picked Grazer to win instead of Chunk on my bracket even though Chunk is objectively massive.

    Great story. I try not to apply human emotions to animals, but damn looks like bears at least are perfectly capable of holding on to a grudge.

    Good for the mama bear
