Brown (Grizzly) bear tracks in the backyard this morning. Looks like a big one! #Alaska #Anchorage #BearValley #Bears
We just spent 4 days at Katmai National Park during what is supposed to be the slow season. We got lucky with huge sockeye salmon run, fine weather, and anywhere from 4 to 14 bears around Brooks Falls. Amazing experience!

#WildlifeWednesday This chunky black bear had only one thing in mind: eat salmon. Dozens of salmon were going up stream navigating their way around rocks in shallow waters when I took these photos. Do you think the bear caught a salmon?

This gorgeous chunky black bear just spotted a delicious salmon. At this time of year, bears consume up to 20,000 calories per day. It is called hyperphagia. I can only hope to eat that much! 😆

Grizzly sow & cub, Grand Teton National Park. May, 2021.
After catching a salmon in a river, bears walk to the forest to eat it. They eat the fatty parts of the fish such as the brain, skin and eggs. The rest of the fish feeds birds, insects, invertebrates, and trees.

This black bear cub is about 8 to 9 months old. It looks very healthy and fat enough to survive its first winter. Its mum is experienced and great at catching salmon. I think that she is an alpha female or matriarch in the clan.

Black bear sow looking at her two cubs. Photo taken earlier this week. She is a good mother and experienced. In a previous post, I mentioned that she might be the matriarch in the clan based on my observations of the past years.

Black bear cubs waiting for their mum while she is catching salmon. There was a lot of communication between the cubs and between the cubs and their mum. Verbal and also tactile. I enjoyed watching their interactions, I just wish I could understand.

Amid concerns over the presence of bears in urban areas, a Sapporo-based environmental nongovernmental organization is planning to bring in a special breed of dog to help respond to incidents. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/09/28/japan/hokkaido-bear-dogs/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #bears #dogs #hokkaido #sapporo #us #hunting
