Memory fails me. Time for wisdom of crowds.

What is this #scifi book/series from the 70's or early 80's?
β–ͺ human ship encounters alien ship, which ejects its occupants in fear upon detection
β–ͺ humans zoom in on ejected aliens, find they are different sizes, morphologies, two thumbs in each hand.
β–ͺ turns out they're rather teddybear-looking, & with sharp teeth, I think.
β–ͺ books deal with two alien races being puzzled and learning about one another ...

Finished audiobook The Lost Fleet: Courageous by Jack Campbell. #3 in series. Pretty formulaic military space adventure. Captain John "Blackjack" Geary has come back from the dead, or suspended sleep anyway, and has to take control of an Alliance battle fleet in its war against the Syndics. Ambitious fleet commanders try to one-up him at every turn. Cheesy love interest with a politician who for some reason was on the flagship of the fleet. Many battles. Sneaky strategery. Mil-Pulp, if that's what you're looking for. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ #scifi #bookstodon
