Large numbers of grizzly / brown bears live in the coastal area of Katmai National Park.  Before spawning salmon arrive at the streams, the bears graze on sedge grass and dig clams on the tidal flats. 

There were many cubs while I was visiting!  They were play fighting, rolling around, and at times their mother was nursing them in plain view.
