So Pretty: Female Brown Bear #2526

Female brown bear stands up in the river watching her cub nearby. How about that hairdo? The wet look. Katmai National Park and Preserve, Alaska.

Brown Bears have coats often tipped with a lighter color, giving a "grizzled" appearance. They also have a large lump of muscle above their shoulders. That muscle gives them great strength in their forelimbs. The Grizzly Bear is a sub-species of the Brown Bear. Brown Bears can weigh up to about 1500 pounds and can run at speeds of 35 miles per hour.

Technical: Canon 1D Mark II 8-megapixel camera, Canon 500 mm f/4 L IS lens plus 2x TC = 1000 mm at f/8 1/250 second at ISO 800. Full height image, crop off left and right.
