TITLE=Brown Bear Relaxing on the Beach #3816

Katmai National Park and Preserve, Alaska. This female bear was sun bathing and eating a salmon on the beach, while her cubs played nearby.

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, 2x teleconverter = 1000 mm at f/8 1/400 second at ISO 400.
