Grizzlies fighting in a river by Rich Brooks
Grizzly greeting.... A pair of bears are seen fighting in a river. The Alaskan grizzlies were seen fighting in the river at Brooks Falls, in the Katmai National Park, Alaska, USA.
Rich Brooks, 71, said, "I witnessed two young male Alaskan grizzly bears, aka, Alaskan Coastal Brown Bears, play-fighting in the water. The young cubs, male grizzlies, will play fight. They will get in each other's face and roar, which can be heard at a great distance. They will bear their teeth and swipe and punch each other. With long claws and sharp teeth, there are injuries, but mostly minor. When they mature and get in the mating game the play fighting stops and the real fights start, which incur serious injuries - large gashes and broken jaws. They may be playing, but they are really practising for the real deal in the new future."
"When mature, these bears can reach 9 feet tall on hind feet and weigh up to 1,700 pounds. They are second in size to the polar bear.
Their diet is rich in protein from the vast quantities of salmon in the surrounding bays, rivers, streams and lakes. Also, they eat sedge grass and dig for clams. From the time they are newborn cubs they will play fight or wrestle. The play fighting involves a lot of roaring, which can be heard at a great distance, slapping, biting and jumping on each other."
"Once these guys reach maturity and are in the mating stage, the play fighting ceases, and they will viciously fight each other for space, food and mates. Also, the mother bears are well known as extremely aggressive fighters to protect their young. In fact, male grizzlies are known to kill young cubs, so mothers can be quite protective."

The Alaskan town torn apart by cruise ship tourism
Juneau's residents are divided over whether to embrace the economic benefits of millions of visitors, or reclaim their town from an industry that has reshaped it.
Juneau is one of the US's most remote towns, accessible only by air or sea. The waters surrounding it are the traditional fishing grounds of Alaska's Indigenous communities. It is wedged between towering mountains and the Gastineau Channel, a dramatic vista for more than 1.5 million cruise passengers who visit annually.
Cruise ships arrive in the Gastineau Channel as parkgoers walk their dogs at Savikko Park in Juneau, Alaska, on Sept. 5, 2024. The city is grappling with the effects of mass cruise tourism, as noise, congestion, and environmental concerns clash with its economic reliance on visitors. The community is divided between those who profit from the influx of tourists and those who feel their way of life is being disrupted.

The Alaskan town torn apart by cruise ship tourism
Juneau's residents are divided over whether to embrace the economic benefits of millions of visitors, or reclaim their town from an industry that has reshaped it.
Juneau is one of the US's most remote towns, accessible only by air or sea. The waters surrounding it are the traditional fishing grounds of Alaska's Indigenous communities. It is wedged between towering mountains and the Gastineau Channel, a dramatic vista for more than 1.5 million cruise passengers who visit annually.
Karla Hart makes phone calls to fellow activists in Juneau, Alaska, on Sept.4, 2024. Hart, a former tourism business owner turned activist, leads Proposition 2, a ballot initiative aiming to ban cruise ships from docking on Saturdays and the 4th of July, allowing locals to reclaim the waterfront. “We’ve become an amusement park,” she says. “The soul of Juneau is being sold off piece by piece.”

Two mother bears fight over salmon, clawing and punching each other to try and get the fish. After all that neither bear got the salmon and some nearby seagulls were the lucky recipients instead.
The photos were taken in Katmai National Park, Alaska, by Rich Brooks who describes himself as a professional tourist. The 70 year old from the Sierra Foothills, California, said: "The bear on the left was having problems catching salmon, maybe she was a new mom and not experienced at catching extra salmon for cubs.
