As Autumn progresses, the bears of the world prepare to hibernate through the winter. They spend their summer fattening up and eating to store the food they'll need for the long winter's nap. And boy, do they get fat! So fat that Katmai Conservancy in Alaska hosts an online contest where you can vote for your favorite supersized bear each year.
On the Conservancy's website, you'll see each bear's progress ranging from early summer slim to September sumptuous. Typically, about a dozen bears compete yearly, and you pick your favorite. Based on votes, the Fat Bear of the Year prize is awarded at the end of the week.
It's a fun contest and education on the life of bears. Login here https://explore.org/fat-bear-week and enjoy!
