I don't know who any of these people are, etc., etc. but so far Grizzly-Vision is better than Ant-Vision
In the other pane I have a much better movie: the live feed from Brooks Falls, Katmai National Park, Alaska, where grizzlies are gorging themselves on spawning salmon. Fat Bear Week isn't far away! Watch here: https://youtu.be/73-EekdVVU8
They're literally just sitting there being fat waiting for salmon to jump into their mouths.
Anyway we've also met a guy living with the deer?
There's a dedicated community of bear-watchers who follow the various camera feeds from Katmai and can tell all the bears apart and follow their escapades over the season. There are bear fan-cams so to speak. https://youtu.be/dSgCj_HCIT4
"It isn't a big brown. It's a grizzly." Wait I thought brown bears and grizzlies were the same thing. How many freaking types of bears can there possibly be in North America.
typing noises
Aha! National Parks Service: "Brown bears, also known as grizzly bears…"
#BREAKING: a bear has caught a salmon. I repeat, a bear has caught a salmon.
Meanwhile in the 70s, a bunch of guys are arguing about the metaphysics of bears.
I went to get chips and missed the theremin.
Look man, if a bear can take down your whole lookout post, it was gonna fail dangerously in the near future anyway

@nev the ones that are in the river seem to be doing great, they are just constantly munching. the ones at the waterfall are just showoffs #BearFeed#Monsterdon
@nev not to well actually, brown bears are an entire subfamily of ursus (ursus arctos) that grizzlies are a part of.
But yeah, Ursus arctos horribilis aka the grizzly as most people think of it is literally just ... The North American Brown Bear. They are one and the same.
@nev hell ya i'm tuning in
