Watch the Bears Live at Brooks Falls
The Brooks Bear Camera goes live early summer 2024!
Have you ever watched a live wildlife camera? Explore.org is the premier destination for wildlife cameras around the globe. We encourage you to check out their site and enjoy the many wild wonders of the world.
On the Brooks Bear Camera, you can watch salmon leaping up the falls while brown bears compete with each other for the best fishing spots. The largest and most successful bears can catch and eat more than 30 salmon (over 120 pounds) per day! Keep an eye out for bald eagles, lots of gulls, and maybe even the occasional wolf trying to partake in the salmon buffet.
And don’t forget to book your trip with Alaska Bear Trips to experience this in person!
