If you’re a bear living in Alaska the best way to prepare for winter hibernation is to find a river full of salmon and eat as much as you can. This bear is affectionately known as 747 as he is very large. He likes to hang out at Brooks Falls where the salmon are plentiful. A fat bear is a happy and successful bear and one that has a high chance of surviving a long and cold winter when he comes out of hibernation.
