Description
Every fall, from mid September to mid October, the grizzly bears of British Columbia, Canada, migrates to the rivers and inlets along Canada's west coast to fish for salmon and fatten up for the long hibernation. The salmon were very abundant this year and the bears were often chasing just for fun. The would take a bite out of the middle of the fish and drop the rest. It is an event that is endlessly fascinating and exciting to watch.
