THAT is a fat bear!

 


Brown bear 747, (excellent name - 747 - the wide body!) tipping the scales at an estimated 1,400lbs (635kg), won 68,105 votes, beating Bear 901 with 56,876 votes.

The result marks an end to Fat Bear Week 2022, which saw people from around the world vote for the fattest bruin at Alaska's Katmai National Park.

The chow-down spotlights the park's famous brown bears as they feed in preparation for winter hibernation.

"Ultimately, 747 ripped apart the salmon - and the competition - to seize his 2nd crown as the 2022 Champion," the park tweeted after Tuesday's vote.

But Bear 747 nearly didn't make it to the final because of an unprecedented case of voter fraud in the semi-finals that was quickly corrected by officials.

    1. They've been unusually busy here too. It might have something to do it being a lousy acorn year.

    2. What does Farmer's Almanac say about that?

      Previously I had been saying this winter will be wet (suck it, climate warriors) but now think maybe it'll just be cold.

  4. They had to close parts of the Great Smokey Mountains National Park because our black bears are staving. That's what happens when no one hunts them
