Impressive photo of a young brown bear fishing for salmon in the river (00001061)

Description: The brown bear, scientifically known as Ursus arctos horribilis, is a majestic animal that calls the wild nature of Alaska home. In this captivating shot, we see a young brown bear skillfully fishing for salmon in the clear river. It's autumn, and the leaves of the trees are glowing in warm colors as the first snow approaches. The salmon run is almost over, but a few stragglers are still desperately trying to reach their spawning grounds. The bear takes advantage of this opportunity to catch the almost dying salmon and prepare for winter.
