Earlier this week I got to photograph this male grizzly bear walking through a river on the BC coast searching for salmon. Chum salmon were still running and during the time I was with him he caught a number of fish to help meet the demand of his hyperphagia. This is the uncontrollable urge to eat, and eat, and eat that bears have at this time of year to make them pile on the weight and build up their reserves before they head off to the mountains to hibernate. More grizzly bears can be seen in the grizzly bear gallery.
