Visitors view brown bears at Brooks Falls on August 11, 2023 at Brooks Falls, Alaska within the Katmai National Park and Preserve. Many come to see brown bears between July and September each year, as millions of sockeye salmon swim upstream to spawn. 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 the state, which has more national park and wilderness land than anywhere in the United States.
