Big Bear. When they stand, we were told by the guide, they want to see better. Also the intimidation factor adds in if they see something that they don’t like. This bear was about 40 feet from me and, yes, I was intimidated. The bear stood for maybe a minute or minute and a half and just stared at our small party of five but gave us no cause for alarm. A magnificent sight that afternoon on Katmi National Park and Reserve’s coastline. We saw 8 bears that day.
