Majestic brown bears heading to Brooks River in Alaska (00001059)
Description: The brown bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) is an impressive animal known for its strength and grace. In this photo, two well-fed brown bears are seen on their way to Brooks River in Alaska. The river was once abundant with salmon, but the time of plenty is over. The bears are still hoping to find a few dead salmon before the harsh winter sets in. An awe-inspiring sight amidst the pristine wilderness of Alaska.
