A dominant brown bear has returned to the Alaska bear cam, seeking fish and females

Bear 747, one of the largest and most dominant Brooks River bears, has returned to his fishing grounds. 

The brown bear is one of the first spotted this year on the five webcams positioned along the salmon-rich river in Katmai National Park, Alaska.

Former Katmai ranger Mike Fitz, who has returned to the park to report on the bears for explore.org — the philanthropic organization that sets up and supports bear cam — said he spied 747 recently, and has seen other dominant bears beginning to roam the verdant area.
