Bears and wolves are natural enemies. They are vicious and dangerous predators who both share a common space and will therefore compete for game. Wolves are also one of the few animals that hunt and kill bear cubs. And for this reason bears are known to deliberately seek out dens in order to kill the cubs.
Which makes it all the more unlikely that these are an actual wild wolf and and an actual wild bear, interacting without human interference
