    This Grizzly Bear was very interested in us. He stared at us for a great length of time and ever came towards us. He was very close to our boat in this shot. Not the least bit threatening though.

    Great shot. You know you are too close when you can see the blood vessels in their eyes. You are in a very exciting environment!
