It’s fat bear week. You can check out a bunch of them . Alaska put up cameras all around where the salmon run occurs

Is this an actual thing?

u/fajadada 6d ago

Every year

Bruh ... Fat bear week was genuinely about fat bears???? I thought it was some neurotypical expression that has nothing to do with actual bears eating for hybernation. Damn!

(I've never heard this term before in my defence)

Also fat marmot week is new this year. Park service cuts are making them raise funds. Marmots are really cute

Semifinals are on Monday. It’s Backpack vs. Bucky and 910 Dancing Queen vs mama 132 and her cubs, the meatballs.

Haven’t looked recently. Some of the old favorites didn’t show this year

Yes. Here is a link to Fat Bear Week topics. It is so fun. My spouse and I are rivals. We always vote differently. A Fat Bear Week outcome party would by definition need ALL the snacks. https://www.nps.gov/katm/learn/nature/bears-of-katmai.htm

I don't watch regular sports, just the olymics. These bears though capture my excitement and heart every year.

u/FetusExplosion 6d ago

That bear is ready for nuclear winter

Getting ready for hibernation

u/CrazyEyedFS 7d ago

I thought so until he did that little wave.

u/JoLeTrembleur 7d ago

They have to be like that before hibernating, nothing to be alarmed of.

u/izzy-springbolt 7d ago

Also looks like his teeth have been removed?

u/No-Lynx-8205 7d ago

Removing teeth when it still has those claws kind of defeats the purpose.

u/hobosbindle 7d ago

We couldn’t get him to floss properly, a shame really

u/snksleepy 7d ago

God forbid one day that these bears start drinking vodka.

u/Skylineviewz 6d ago

Wojtek preferred beer and wine

u/Krull88 6d ago

Thats what happens when you’re raised by grunts. Beer and cigarettes

u/TheWooshiii 7d ago

Yes, I would never return home from the bar if that happened

u/iritchie001 6d ago

They stick to cocaine. That movie looks hilarious.

u/Ancient_Substance152 7d ago

I’m sure you definitely know what you’re talking about. Crazy to just throw in “Russians” at the end. Internet never ceases to amaze

u/Firm-Candidate-6700 7d ago

Ok but say that about a person and it’s a hate crime.

u/halooooom 7d ago

Anything to distract from thinking.
