* I've always had a fascination with Winnie the Pooh when I was a wee lass, it still follows me around to this day. Whether it's with the big wild ones in nature or pooh bear in a little girl's arms at the grocery store. So I wanted to start my year out with the spirit of the bear, plus my tummy is growling like a bear coming out of hibernation, f**k this new veggie diet!! :P

A few quick shots of the bears at Whipsnade. Not the greatest bear photos I've ever got but hey, they weren't around long given the weather - out of bed, grab food, run back to bed. A very sensible approach if you ask me.
Bears in the backyard, playing against my bunnies fence (they were indoors at the time). At a about 12 feet away, I had finally stop taking pictures and chase them out of the yard.
Look ... It's the Three Bears! LOL
Before I visited the arctic to witness the polar bears for myself, I had the impression that these bears were going to be quite aggressive to one another and that I might witness some harsh altercations between adults. Now I'm not saying that it doesn't happen like that in nature, but rather that I didn't witness it in Kaktovik. What I witnessed was adult moms gathering together with their young ones .... with other moms and their young. Adults walking together ... stride for stride ... in harmony and peace. Sure we witnessed "rough housing" around when in the water and even one time when a sow and her cub were fending off an adult who was pursuing them. That encounter I would describe as more of a "serious play" that came with boundaries that weren't to be crossed.
For the most part, you would never see brown bears within each others personal space like we did with the polar bears. It made them seem so peaceful. As you can see, these bears weren't suffering from lack of food, Perhaps that had something to do with it. Funny how things strike you when you're actively engaged in observation.
Thanks so much for stopping by to view and especially for sharing your thoughts and comments.

Large male Grizzly Bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) grazing on the protein rich sedge grasses of the K'tzim-a-deen Grizzly Bear Sanctuary in the Khutzeymateen Inlet along the west coast north of Prince Rupert, British Columbia, Canada.
This trip was during the spring when Grizzly Bears were actively feeding on the sedge grasses, rich in protein, to regain the weight lost during hibernation and is also the breeding season.
