Prize Catch – Katmai

Description

Perched high on the river bluffs of Katmai National Park, “Prize Catch” captures a poignant moment in the life of a blonde grizzly bear. Clutching a vividly red salmon in its jaws, the bear stands victoriously on small rocks at the river’s edge. The ground around it is littered with the remains of previous hunts, painting a stark picture of survival and prowess in the wild. This photograph not only highlights the bear’s successful hunt but also offers a glimpse into the cycle of life and death that defines the natural world.
