Nu börjar björnarna sakta men säkert vakna till liv igen inom Katmai Nationalpark och det blir spännande att få möta dem igen! EcoWatch första resa för året till Katmai blir nu i juni under björnarnas parningssäsong. Ett stort antal björnar samlas då på de öppna gräsfälteten längs Katmais kust, det erbjuder fantastiska fotomöjligheter. Stora hanar är på plats för att uppvakta honrna samt utmana varandara vilket leder till massor av interaktioner och intressanta händelser. I utkanten av händelsernas centrum har man även ibland turen att få observera nyutkommna årsungar, vilka alltid är något speciellt att få observera och fotografera. Det finns faktiskt fortsatt möjllighet att följa med då de finns två platser öppna för bokning! Om du är intresserad så skicka gärna ett mail till [email protected]

Soon the season in Katmai Nationalpark starts again and we are looking forward to get out there again! EcoWatch first tour this year will be during the mating season in June, large numbers of bears gathers in the open grass field at the coast of Katmai and it offers great photo opportunities with large males around and lots of interactions. At the outskirts of the action you are sometimes lucky to observe the tiny cubs of the year which is always something special to get to observe and photograph.
There is two spots open for late booking if you are interested you can send a mail to [email protected]

This was an action filled morning at the coast of Katmai National Park, Alaska. Sometimes bears clash into a fight if both stand their ground defending a fishing spot, usually one backs away but sometimes they can inflict serious injuries on each other even leathal. Bears are super strong one of the strongest of mammals in relation to their body size. With a swipe force 10 times a human and a biting force 4-5 times a german shepherd they can inflict serious damage. Luckily bears usually try to avoid physical impact and rather bluff charge and do strength demonstrations to get another bear to back down. At the coast of Katmai the bears generally have a much greater tolerance of other bears compared to the inland bears. The food resources are generally plentiful and extensive aggression would be a waste of energy and a unnecessary risk to get injured. Evolution has benefit bears with less aggression since they most probably have had a greater survival rate.

Bear season is since long over for this year and hopefully bears at the cost of Katmai are well prepared for the long winter sleep. The tour in September went to Hallo Bay, Katmai National Park one of the perhaps most scenic place along the coast of Katmai. We had good weather for the most of the time and Hallo Bay is then a true paradise, in the morning we where met by beautiful sunrises at the beach with bears running in the shallows at the tidal flats chasing after salmon. The salmon run was unfortunately bad this year but that didn’t stop the bears from actively trying to chase down the few salmons arriving trying to find their way up the river.

Dates for next year is falling in place and there will most probably be on tour in mid September and early summer.
Dates will appear at ecowatch.se coming weeks so check it out!

Björnsäsongen i Katmai, Alaska är sedan länge över för i år och förhoppningsvis är björnarna väl förberedda för den långa vintersömnen. Vår tur i september gick till Hallo Bay i Katmai nationalpark, kanske en av de mest natursköna platserna längs Katmais kust. Vi hade bra väder under de flesta dagarna och Hallo Bay är då ett sant paradis; på morgonen möttes vi av vackra soluppgångar på stranden med björnar som sprang i det grunda vattnet på tidvattensankarna jagandes efter lax. Laxleken var tyvärr dålig i år men det hindrade dock inte björnarna från att aktivt försöka jaga de få laxar som letade sig upp mot älven.

Datum för nästa år planeras nu och det blir troligen minst två turer, en i mitten av september och en under försommaren.

Datum kommer inom kort på ecowatch.se
