First moose hunting, now a bear stare down. That's what happened to Sarah Palin when a brown bear and her two cubs crashed a quiet family salmon fishing expedition in Alaska. The mothers stared at one another before the bear blinked, and moved off, reports the Telegraph. The bear apparently knows a mama grizzly when she sees one—at least the political kind Palin extols in her new video.

Or maybe the bear heard about the dead grizzly Palin likes to sit on. The hide of a grizzly shot by Palin's pop covers the couch in the former governor's Anchorage office. Youch. That's one grizzly who won't be voting Tea Party. (More Sarah Palin stories.)
