Grizzly makes a catch
A large male Grizzly bear (Ursus arctos) catches a salmon in mid air as it tries to jump the falls. The largest males get the best spot in the river where they wait for the salmon to jump. The bear opens its mouth and the fish jumps in. It sounds so simple, but this hasn't worked well for me.
