Fishing success

A grizzly bear starting to eat the sockeye salmon he caught after a successful lunge into the water from the Chilko River shoreline, Cariboo Chilcotin, British Columbia. Bulking up on lots of fish during the late fall salmon migration is critical to the hibernation and reproductive success of the bears.

    Nice to see the bear enjoying the fruits of the hunt! (I thought of your bears the other day when I was making and eating salmon tacos!)
