Remember when you were a kid and you just messed around all day and did whatever you wanted to (as long as your parents said it was okay)?
Sibling rivalry is a real thing, so the cubs could be showing off in front of their mom to prove themselves. However, it seems to me like they are too busy having fun to be worried about competing with one another. They could both also just really want that fresh salmon too, which the mother probably caught in the first place.
In the clip, the two cubs are really going after it trying to rip the fish away from each other. One of them eventually comes away with the salmon and takes off in the opposite direction with the other cub in hot pursuit.
Bear 901, huh? Not as good of a nickname as “Shower Bear,” but still pretty cool I guess. Take a look:

The two of them run through the shallow water of the river for a moment, before the cub with the salmon “jukes out” its sibling and makes a beeline for the river bank. Once its paws reach dry land, the cub starts climbing up the steep incline like a mad man with both its sibling and its mother following along closely behind.
