A pair of bears send water spraying into the air while having some sibling rivalry by battling in a river.

The two grizzly bears were splashing around in the Nakina River, deep in Canada's Taku Wilderness, an area straddling northern British Columbia and the southern Yukon Territory.



Andy Skillen a wildlife photographer for nearly 30 years said, "These two grizzly bears are brothers but they met up for the first time in months. Re-acquainted with each other they got involved in some light-hearted sparring to re-affirm their bond."



"I was camped there for a few weeks working with these bears, following them on foot having been deposited there by helicopter - the only way to reach this super remote part of the country."
