I'd been watching this brown bear for about 15mins, working its way through the low foliage when it went up on its hind legs next to the cedar. At first, it used its teeth to pull strips of bark from the tree; it then swung around, remaining up-right, and began scratching its back, then around again, but this time literally hugging the tree. It remained like this for about 20 seconds, then dropped to all fours and disappeared into the underbrush.
