The Bears of Katmai National Park

Below are a few pictures of brown bears from Brooks Falls, Katmai National Park, on the Alaska Peninsula. I had the great fortune of going to Brooks Camp on 23 July while leading a birding and natural history trip for Wilderness Birding Adventures, in conjunction with The Nature Conservancy.  At least 14 bears were fishing for sockeye salmon while we were there and we saw another seven or eight on the walk to and from the falls. Click on any of the photos to enlarge.
