Chocolate's mother soon headed down the mountain looking for food. They reached the forest and Chocolate's mother lifted her head at the sound of squawking ravens. She swung her head from side to side, wrinkling her nose. A heavy smell came from the trees. Chocolate followed her mother to the carcass of a winter-killed elk. Chocolate's mother eagerly bit into the meat.

Suddenly they heard a loud "whompf." A large male grizzly charged toward them. Chocolate hid behind her mother. Her mother roared and grunted, "Rooorr-huff-huff-huff." The male was after her cub. Bravely she charged. They came together, their heads twisting and turning. Chocolate's mother jumped back and the male rose up on his hind legs. Then he caught the scent of the elk and turned his head. Chocolate's mother raced back to Chocolate. They galloped off as the male grizzly settled down to feed on the carcass.
