The salmon run is nearing the end and the brown bear is under the Brooks falls also with dead salmon lying on the ground satisfied. (00000093)
Description: It's late autumn and the first snow is not far away. The leaves of the trees and shrubs shine in the most beautiful colors. The "salmon run" is over. Only a few stragglers are still on their way to reach the spawning grounds. The brown bear is trying to catch almost dying and already dead salmon. The majestic brown bear, also known as Ursus arctos horribilis, is an imposing predator that calls the Alaskan wilderness home. His search for salmon below the picturesque Brooks waterfall is a fascinating natural spectacle that reflects the beauty and wildness of nature.
