1908_8471 Reward!
The World's Coolest Bear scores! Georgina's nose didn't let her down; in a flash her muzzle hit the water and she came up with a Pink Salmon. At that point she needed to get out of "the hole" as quickly as possible, because in that spot her view of the beach is blocked and she can't see rivals approaching. She might not hear them, either, due to the sounds of rushing water, and her smell could be compromised depending on direction of the air currents. So... she headed for higher ground, and took her meal into the nearby forest to enjoy it in seclusion. Twenty minutes later she was back on the beach, alert for the next opportunity.
