Species: Alaskan Brown Bear | Location: Katmai National Park And Preserve , United States Of America
I photographed this Alaskan Brown (Grizzly) Bear fishing for salmon at Brooks Falls in the Katmai National Park and Preserve on the NatHab 2019 tour of Alaska. We had to go to bear school before hiking the trail up to the falls. This trip tied for our #1 favorite wildlife adventure along with the Lindblad trip (booked through NatHab) to the Galapagos Islands.
