  Coastal bears in the sedge meadows

  The second wave: bears working the lower river for dying salmon rather than leaping at the falls, fatter, calmer and with far fewer people watching. Weather grounds more flights than in July.

  20 Sep – 8 Oct · normalmenteTemporada de fauna

  A knockout vote on which Brooks River bear has put on the most weight before hibernating, run on the park webcams by explore.org with the park and the conservancy. You watch it from anywhere; the bears are indifferent. Fuente ↗
