And don’t forget the naps! But don’t take our word for it. <growling sounds> Second thought: no bears were available for comment. Fattening up as winter approaches is essential for the bears at Katmai National Park & Preserve; relying on stored fat for energy, they can lose up to a third of their body fat during the winter.

During #FatBearWeek, learn more about the lives of bears while also gaining a greater understanding of Katmai’s ecosystem through a series of live events hosted on explore.org.
