Living Alone with Wild Bears | Alone Among The Grizzlies, Part 2

SUBSCRIBE for more: bit.ly/2ol5mam
Cameraman Richard Terry travels to the remote Alaskan wilderness to film the extraordinary world of a man who chooses to live with wild, brown bears…
Swiss biologist David Bittner has spent the last seven years forging intimate relationships with these feared predators in the same area of Alaska where Timothy Treadwell was infamously mauled by a grizzly. Now, for the first time, he’s let someone in to capture his remarkable life.
In this second episode, summer turns to autumn and bear man David Bittner goes in search of one of nature’s most spectacular events; the annual salmon run. It happens just once a year and attracts scores of hungry bears, but they will have to brave some of harshest conditions on the planet if they are to make it.

Great Documentarys!

This is a really great documentary. Lately I've been obsessed with Timothy Treadwell and his tragic story. While Bittner seems to be a little more grounded in reality than Tim (and takes more common sense precautions like having bear spray and an electric fence), I still worry the same thing could happen to him. I hope I am wrong.

that was funny, the way the guy outed the cameraman as a wino.

Everyone trying to copy Timothy

He seems like a very nice person BUT I have a HUGE issue with someone putting themselves so close in proximity to these Apex predators, and a biologist no less !! Its clear that he has a true obsession with seeing how close he can get to these respectable predators. But as science and history dictates, people placing anthramorphic traits onto animals set themselves up for disaster . These are animals, not humans - not friends - not family. Many people in Alaska find this kind of activity to be reckless, and ultimately a huge risk to the bears. If an accident or mauling would occur , it is almost certain death sentence for that bear. Spending 6 weeks in Katmai to film is pretty amazing though- I am very glad it went well for the most part. Hopefully this footage will not have to be referenced to in retrospect ala Timothy Treadwill.
