Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska

1992

George F. Mobley

A brown bear hunts for fish in the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge on
an island off the southern coast of Alaska. A male Kodiak brown bear
can rear up 10 feet (3 meters) and, at 1,500 pounds (680 kilograms),
roll along at speeds as high as 35 miles (56 kilometers) an hour.
