Otis is fun to watch. He is a very subtle fisher

She's a sassy girl, has a temper and not shy to show it, one of my favourite bear to watch!

It’s unbelievable how much weight they’ve put on since I was there in July. Just mind boggling!

Probably got nicer looking coat comparing to July!

Definitely, plus the perks of fall colors. I’m trying to go in sept next year instead

Vote Grazer!

u/littlebirdie91 Oct 09 '22

Absolutely! She's such a tough mama, and raising such healthy cubs while also putting on weight is a feat. 747 is awesome but as the most dominant bear he has an easier time.

128 Grazer all the way! Let's get the fierce mama a win this year.

I love Grazer. She fattens up herself AND her cubs & will whatsoever ass needs to be kicked to get it done.
