Black bear  

Did You Know?
Biologists in Kenai Fjords are trying to learn 'how close is too close?' By approaching black bears on foot and by boat, researchers are able to observe at what distance bears are disturbed by humans. Preliminary results indicate that a distance of 100 meters or more is generally tolerated by bears.
