The female Alaskan brown bear had just finished fishing for her two young cubs on the river bank in Alaska’s Katmai National when she had to spring into action.

“Grizzly” and “Brown” are names for the same bear species in different locations. Generally bears fishing along Alaska’s coast are called brown bears, while inland bears are called grizzlies.

Kodiak bear (Ursus arctos middendorffi) threat display. Standing fully upright, a large male could reach a height of 3 m (10 ft). The Kodiak is a subspecies of brown bear that lives exclusively in Alaska on islands in the Kodiak Archipelago: Kodiak, Afongnak and Shuak. They’ve been isolated from other bears for about 12,000 years.
