Grizzly Bear Catches Fish in Mid-Air

We spent two days in the Katmai National Park, located in Alaska, watching Grizzly Bears - aka Brown Bears - catching salmon at Brooks Falls. There's a great viewing deck where people can watch the show. We arrived on day 1 praying to get this scene on tape and got it 5 minutes before we had to leave on day 2. It was a bit of a miracle. The park ranger on duty said she thought it was the first mid-air catch of 2011. Unfortunately we didn't get the name or number of this particular bear, but he must be a regular because he really knew what he was doing. Thanks to Kulik Fishing Lodge for a great trip! The bears weren't the only ones who caught fish on this trip.
