Description: The majestic Brown Bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) stands at a wild waterfall, shaking the water off its thick fur. It's late fall in Alaska, the trees are dressed in the warm colors of autumn, and winter is just around the corner. The bear is trying to catch the last salmon of the year to prepare for its long winter hibernation. Watch this fascinating animal in its natural habitat as it navigates through the crystal-clear water.
