Description: The majestic brown bear, scientifically known as Ursus arctos horribilis, is fishing for salmon in the wild Brooks River in Alaska. It's late autumn, the blueback salmon have already migrated, and the bear is searching for half-dead salmon floating at the river bottom. This is his last opportunity to feed before hibernating for the winter.
