During July and August, salmon swim upstream in Alaska’s rivers and are fair game for brown bears. Chum salmon provide a protein-rich diet that enables bears to survive Alaska’s harsh winters. Each bear has his own fishing technique, learned through practice and experience. Although normally solitary by nature, bears tolerate each other during the salmon runs due to the abundance of food.
Deep in the Alaska woods, this big bull moose browses in a Denali meadow. Bull moose are often solitary, except during the fall rut when mating takes place. In Alaska, moose often weigh over 1,500 pounds and stand over seven feet tall. The moose is the largest member of the deer family and the largest moose ever recorded was taken in the Yukon weighing an incredible 1,800 pounds.
Several bison cross the Madison River in Yellowstone National Park. The area provides an opportune location for wandering buffalo.
