The bears at Brooks Falls in Katmai National Park, Alaska are celebrities in their own right. Thousands of tourists flock to the region each summer to watch the bears feast on migrating salmon.
The park has also set up an awesome webcam that runs 24/7. It gives people all around the world the opportunity to watch them.
One of the best moments of all time is when a bear belly-flopped from the top of the falls to catch a salmon.
Check out the hilarious clip below:
“Few bears take the plunge off of Brooks Falls. Sometimes bears make a mistake and fall off of the falls, but 775 Lefty jumped through his own volition—several times. The sight of sockeye salmon was all the enticement that hungry bear needed.”
What an absolute legend. It doesn’t seem like he actually caught a fish, but you gotta respect his effort.
