Heavy is the bear that wears the crown! 👑🐻 Congrats 747! Bear Force One has landed! Few brown bears ever grow as large as the bear who shares an identification number with a jet airplane. When 747 was first identified in 2004, he was a relatively young bear and unable to compete with larger bears for the most preferred fishing locations. Since then, he has become one of the largest brown bears on Earth, perhaps weighing as much as 1,400 pounds (636 kg). Not bad. 747 would like to thank the sockeye salmon for such high concentrations of fat, the clean cold water of the Brooks River for being a fabulous host, and all the other bears he outmaneuvered to get the best fishing spots, and…Sorry, the music is playing, 🎵but 747 is full, and…🎵🎶🎵 What’s next for 747? The bears at Katmai National Park & Preserve will retreat to their dens to bed down for the winter later this month. They’ll stay there until the late spring, when they’ll emerge thin…and hungry for the 2023 crown. Thanks...
