Grazer's cub died after it slipped over a waterfall and was killed by Chunk, perhaps the most dominant brown bear on the river.

In a storyline better befitting a melodrama than a popularity vote, Grazer won her second Fat Bear Contest Tuesday by defeating the male behemoth that killed her cub this summer.

Grazer beat Chunk by more than 40,000 votes cast by fans watching live cameras of Alaska’s Katmai National Park and Preserve.
