Kamchatka: Bears Country | Nature Documentary

Here is a short documentary about Kamchatka bears that I made in the Russian Far East in August 2023.
Kamchatka Peninsula, Russian far east, home to approximately 24000 brown bears, the largest brown bears of Eurasia, excellent swimmers and sharp predators. The area of the Kurile Lake, the deepest and the second largest lake of the Peninsula, in Southern Kamchatka is visited during summer by approximately 100 bears hunting for salmon. I have spent 5 days on the lake filming these magnificent animals.
Millions of salmon come to Kurile Lake from the Pacific Ocean to spawn in its fertile waters which will provide their young with abundant food. During summer Kurile Lake contains the densest assembly of bears to be found anywhere on Earth. All hungry for salmon.
Location: Kurile Lake, Kamchatka, Russia - August 2023.
