Fall Activity of Bears©

gray paw Activity of Bears:
Mid September to Mid October:

Coho salmon are still entering the rivers and are available. Bears are now observed feeding on fish that have spawned out and died. Fall colors are beautiful and the days are becoming shorter. Weather can be pleasant with short duration fast moving storms passing through the area. Bears are gorgeous with their winter fur and guard hairs. Bears are spending long periods of time resting/sleeping near the rivers or on the beaches. Berries are also a very important part of their diet at this time.©
