Bears eating salmon in Coquitlam, BC


Mama Bear with her two cubs

Cubs eating salmon


My friend Tobi A. took these photos for me when she was doing field work in Coquitlam, BC in October 2008. I had forgotten about them until I stumbled on them last night and felt it would make a great first post for the Camera Critter Meme. Click photos to enlarge for a better view.

Is this really your first Camera Critters post? Welcome! I love the cubs, they are so roly-poly and fluffy looking.

Welcome to CC! I love these photos - I would have stayed far far away from mama and cubs!

I love BC but don't get up there from Portland very often. Beautiful city and wilderness.

There is nothing like seeing a bear in the wild. I've seen them three times in the Smokey Mountains.
These are wonderful images.
Glad you joined us.

That looks so nice and peaceful, but wasn't it dangerous to take these pictures ?

These are neat photos. Sure would be great to capture animals like these on film. Thanks for putting them up here for us to enjoy.
