  Coastal bears in the sedge meadows

  25 maj – 15 jul · vanligtvisDjurlivssäsong

  July salmon run at the falls

  25 jun – 5 aug · vanligtvisDjurlivssäsongTrångtBoka tidigt

  Sockeye stack up below Brooks Falls and the bears stand in the lip catching them mid-air, which is the picture everyone has seen. The viewing platform runs a timed queue in July because there is only room for so many. Källa ↗

  September bears on spawned fish

  1 sep – 15 okt · vanligtvisDjurlivssäsong

  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.

  Fat Bear Week

  20 sep – 8 okt · vanligtvisDjurlivssäsong

  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. Källa ↗
