A brown bear scans for sockeye salmon on August 12, 2023 near Brooks Falls, Alaska. The bears feast at the falls in large numbers between July and September, as millions of salmon swim upstream to spawn within the vast Katmai National Park and Preserve. Many of the same bears return to the falls annually, gorging on salmon to fatten up before hibernating for winter. The bears have become something of an internet sensation, as “bearcams” livestream bear activity at and around the falls to viewers worldwide. Commercial salmon fishing in Alaskan waters has often pitted business interests against wildlife conservationists in Alaska, which has more national park and wilderness land than anywhere in the United States.
