Description

I felt so sorry for this big fella. With that thick furcoat in the summer heat (when I took this picture) - he must have been COOKING! This is a Kodiak Bear, for the uninformed. I LOVE bears. I used to have this book on all kinds of bears with pictures and info and stuff. I read it to oblivion. They're so beautiful.... 'cept when they're mauling people, of course...
