There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Ending the salmon run: " As we get closer to the winter time, we edge closer to the final run of salmon. Making their ways upstream these incredible fish partake in a once in a lifetime marathon where once they reach the finish line they already begun decomposing alive ".

Yes I saw a television documentary about the bears of this place at least 20 years ago. If I am well reminding they were described as being white brown bears (rather than white black bear).

@"BorneanTiger" :

About #752 and #753: But I believe to be wrong. The bears of this isle Kermode would be white black bears and after verification an exceptional hybrid both in wild and captivity between grizzly and polar bear would exist:

Though polar bears can co-occur with browns in Alaska, it would be in the northern part, south of the Arctic Ocean, and Denali is in Interior Alaska, so I wouldn't expect the first white bear at least to be a hybrid.

Yes, I react as you do knowing that these cases of hybridation in wild between two big animals are quite exceptional. There wasn't any more than 8 or 12 in wild.
