A video of a wolf biting a grizzly bear on the butt at Yellowstone National Park has gone viral.

The bear ended up biting the bear three times, according to Gaston.

"The bear sat down after it was bitten, then as soon as the wolf walked away it did too," Gaston told USA Today's FTW Outdoors.

Gaston says the video was taken at Crystal Creek near Slough Creek at daybreak.  He that there was a large animal carcass in the brush in the area that the wolf was probably trying to claim.
