Anita Latte Posted July 7, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 7, 2019 In Katmai National Park. I can't recall who referenced this bear cam and the link in their trip report...but I bookmarked it when I read it...and I am so grateful I did. The bears are out...and it is so satisfying to watch...especially since I don't have another Alaska vacation on the books at this time. As I post this, right now...seven bears are on camera: https://explore.org/livecams/brown-bears/brown-bear-salmon-cam-brooks-falls 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marden1970 Posted July 12, 2019 #6 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Anita, I'm spending too much time watching all the different cams! Watched elephants this morning as there was only one bear and he wasn't very active. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anita Latte Posted July 24, 2019 Author #11 Share Posted July 24, 2019 We have a Roku...with the YouTube app, I can watch on my tv! Only problem is that the app will stop after a certain period of time...so you have to reload the channel. I'm so glad everyone is having fun with the bears.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gottagoacruzn Posted July 24, 2019 #14 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Hi, just saw a bear fishin. Not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanF65 Posted July 25, 2019 #15 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Is the camera remotely operated, its moved downstream and then back and just a little while ago a bear went off screen to the left of the falls and it moved to pick up the shore This is fascinating for my desktop second monitor.

Anita Latte Posted July 25, 2019 Author #16 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Idk if it’s a person or some sort of “smart” camera but I love the fact that it zooms in and pans out with activity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LessWorkMoreTravel Posted July 26, 2019 #17 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Watching this cam last year is what made me book my trip to Anan last week when we were in Ketchikan. We didn't see any brown bears when we were there, unfortunately, but watching the black bears fish was a bucket list item for me. It was awesome!

Langley Cruisers Posted July 26, 2019 #19 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Wow, this has really captivated me. The circle of life, man... the bears tear into the salmon and rip off their skin, eating them while they are still alive and wiggling and probably writhing with pain. It's intense! 🐻 🐟 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anita Latte Posted July 27, 2019 Author #20 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Yes...we find ourselves critiquing the bears and their technique! LOL. The other night, a younger and then a heavier, older looking bear were side by side. The younger bear would get a fish, grab a bite or two and would lift his paw, not sure it was on purpose, and his fish would go racing down river with the current. The older bear would catch his fish and then go meander over toward the side bank, out of the strong current, and really eat most of his catch with no worries about the current taking his catch away. We were offering vocal commentary for the thoughts of the older bear...silly young bear, etc. So fun to watch the bears... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Sky Girl Posted July 29, 2019 #24 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Thank you for posting this. What am I going to do when there are no bears out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoBaycruiser Posted July 30, 2019 #25 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I’ve become an avid watcher as well because we have an excursion out of Kodiak planned on the 8th to see the bears salmon fishing. This webcam continues to give me hope that the salmon are still running. 9 more days to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
