Wild Brown Bears in Finland

See cubs climb trees when they get frightened by a bigger bear and watch huge males roam through the Taiga forest.

We no longer offer the brown bear photography trip in Finland. If you want to see brown bears, you can come with us to Alaska. Join wildlife & nature photographer Marsel van Oosten and come back with great pictures. Visit www.squiver.com and sign up for the Ultimate Bear trip, learning the tricks from a professional.

it was only the cubs that climbed the trees. Adult brown bears are simply too heavy to climb

You'd be suprised. During this year's photo trip to Finland, an adult bear climbed up a tree and stayed there for over an hour...

i was at the Tatra in Slovakia last summer, and i met with a young brown bear in the forrest, in august. it was amazing! When the bear saw me, climbed up a pine. :-) they're more afraid of us than we from them. but be carfeful with a mother bear with a bruin... easily come aggressive!
