Grumpy
The bears were given whole coconuts in the water, which they played with first before cracking them open. The male shown here, decided to take the coconut away from the female just off screen to the right. (Melbourne zoo)

That makes cracking coconuts sound easy!! It once took me three weeks to crack one open!! This is a beautiful picture. Peter

Sounds like a male thing. Being one, I can say that.
Looks like he’s saying “sorry”, and she’s saying “you should be”. Wonderful photo Kala.

Oh no Warren, he just pinched her coconut right out from under her wet little paws! Thanks for all your great comments, they are much appreciated. I was particularly pleased with this photo as it was taken through glass and in a dark tunnel.
