Report from the Field: Bears of Katmai, Summer 2021
Expedition Leader Brad Josephs has spent more than two decades of his globetrotting naturalist guide career focused on the brown bears of Alaska’s Katmai Peninsula. These hefty omnivores—Alaska’s “coastal grizzlies” that fatten up to enormous dimensions on summer salmon bounty – provide endless delight for the Nat Hab guests who observe them each season. Many of our travelers are familiar with Brad’s incredible bear photos, which he shares regularly on his blog, “Bears & Beyond.” In today’s webinar, Brad reviews the first half of the 2021 bear season, sharing highlights in images and stories from his annual adventures on the Katmai coast. Learn about mating season, hear about a beached whale that provided a bear feast, and look at heartwarming photos of adorable spring cubs. It was a banner year for births; one mama had four cubs, thrilling our guests with close-up views. You’ll come away smiling, inspired and ready to join us for a bear bash in Alaska next year!
