Katmai National Park’s bear 409 (aka “Beadnose”) won the 2018 competition for fattest bear. According to the park, when “she is not raising cubs, this bear is usually one of the fattest females.”

Katmai National Park & Preserve in Alaska wanted the public to weigh in on a very important question: Which of the park’s fat brown bears has gotten the fattest after a summer of nearly nonstop gorging on salmon?

Was it Bear 747, who this year truly represented the jet which shares his name?
Use the slider to see what 747 looked like in June, near the beginning of the salmon run in the park’s Brooks River. And now look at him two months later on the right. “Is that a bear, or a hippopotamus?” Katmai’s Facebook page asks.

Or 409, aka “Beadnose”?
Her cubs left her to go off on their own earlier this year, the park reports, “and since then this gigantic gal has only expanded her marvelous muffin top.”

After a day of the public voting on Facebook, Katmai has declared a winner: It’s Beadnose, a whose salmon gorge has fashioned her body into a massive almost-sphere.
“When [Beadnose] is not raising cubs,” Katmai National Park writes in her bio, “this bear is usually one of the fattest females.” Take it as a win for working moms.

The contest culminates Katmai’s annual “Fat Bear Week” where the park asks the public to vote — March Madness style — on pairs of bears that have gone girthy during the annual salmon feeding frenzy in preparation for the winter hibernation months. Each day of the week, ending today “Fat Bear Tuesday,” had a round of competition.

Katmai insists “there’s no fat shaming here.” Instead, the competition is a celebration of this natural cycle, and a chance to show off the vitality of these enormous, magnificent creatures."
