Watch a Hungry Bear Catch Salmon | Expedition Raw

·Nov 11, 2024

It's a really good spot. Bears come from all directions; we can pretty much predict where they're going to hunt. I'm going to set up a camera and try and get a shot of a bear smashing into a salmon.

I'm with my camera, with my tripod, and a bear comes out of the forest. The bear lunges down, grabs the salmon, picks it up, and walks off with it. We haven't got the killer shot yet. I've come back down with the video kit; we're going to be sitting in the same place as we were yesterday.

I set one right in front of where the last fish was caught, and I also put a camera on a stick coming out of where the bear will stand. That will give me a bird's eye view so we can see what it's looking at.

I think it's time to let them do their thing. Please walk in front of my camera. I think if we just sit it out, we'll get this, 'cause it is a very, very cool angle.

Sure enough, about an hour and a half, 2 hours later, she comes back down. I start the camera recording again, and she walks out onto the same log and sits there and stares at the water. She just needs to walk one more meter, and then she's right in front of the camera.

Then all of a sudden, Wham! She slams a salmon as it breaks the surface of the water. She grabs it, pulls it straight up out of the water, right in front of the lens, right in front of the camera.

One of the cool things when you nail a shot is that not only have you just seen something incredible, but you've also captured it, and that is why it's all about patience.

We're just about to go to sleep, and Beck said, "Do you hear that bear?" So we decided to get out of the tent to find out that the tree 2 ft from the front door of the tent had two bear cubs up it.
