Join the Fun of Fat Bear Week!

Author: Kate Crump (Aug 24)

Now, let’s talk about a highlight of the year: Fat Bear Week. This annual celebration is hosted by Katmai National Park and has gained quite a following. It’s an exciting, week-long event where viewers can vote for their favorite “fat” bear. The bears’ plumpness is a sign of their successful feeding and preparation for winter hibernation. The week features a fun bracket-style competition, and it’s a fantastic way to get involved with the park’s community while celebrating these impressive animals.

During Fat Bear Week, the Bear Cam becomes even more of a focal point as fans and experts alike track the bears’ progress and cast their votes. It’s an opportunity to learn more about the bears’ habits, their diet, and how they thrive in their natural habitat.
