Brown bears fishing for salmon in Kuril Lake in Russia
Brown bears (Ursus arctos), also known as Grizzlies, fish for salmon in one of the best spots where the Ozernaya River flows into Kurilskoe Lake under the backdrop of a volcano. Brown bears are not pack animals and an abundant food supply attracts them to the same place to hunt. The Kurilskoe Preserve is the model for poaching enforcement in all of Kamchatka. It is protected and the last wild place that produces all seven species of salmon; Kamchatka, Russia

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image, a brown bear stands at the edge of Kurilskoe Lake, intently focused on the crystal-clear waters below. The majestic Ozernaya River flows into the lake, creating a breathtaking scene where the wilderness of Kamchatka Peninsula comes alive. The backdrop of an active volcano adds to the raw, untouched beauty of this remote location. Brown bears are solitary hunters and are drawn to this spot by the abundant food supply of salmon, making it a prime hunting ground. The Kurilskoe Preserve, where this photograph was taken, is a protected area and a model for poaching enforcement in all of Kamchatka. It is the last remaining wild place where all seven species of salmon are produced, making it a crucial habitat for these magnificent creatures. The bear's intense gaze reflects the anticipation of a successful catch. With the low angle view, we are given a unique perspective of the scene, allowing us to fully appreciate the power and size of this magnificent predator. The underwater photography captures the vibrant colors of the salmon, adding to the visual allure of this image. This photograph is a testament to the natural wonders that still exist in the world, untouched by human intervention. The Kurilskoe Lake Preserve is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a reminder of the importance of preserving these natural habitats for future generations. The image, taken by Randy Olson, is a stunning representation of the beauty and power of nature, capturing the essence of the Kamchatka wilderness.
