Our Biggest Bear - a photo on Flickriver

Our Biggest Bear

            This is the biggest bear we have ever seen, of any species. Male Polar Bear (Ursus maritimus) strolling the edge of a spit of land off the coast of Barter Island, near Katktovik, in northeast Alaska. Although he's waiting for the sea behind him to freeze up, so he can hunt on the sea ice during winter, he still looks good here. Image taken in October 2018.
