Brown Bear, Alaska

This is a photo of a brown bear with long stems of sedge grass in its mouth.

A brown bear munches on sedge grass in Lake Clark National Park.   I’m not sure why it is that brown bears, at least where they are routinely photographed, pretty much ignore humans.  I don’t know of any distance rules regarding the bears in Lake Clark.  Of course, there was the famous case of Timothy Treadwell, a brown bear activist who, along with his girlfriend, was killed by a male brown bear in 2003.
