@Meg I am telling myself it’s just a friend who came over to play.

@Meg Voted for the single bear. Because he got them massive gains.

ETA: also now that i am looking longer, i am really concerned about the fact that there are four cubs in the first pic. aw, oh no, oh jeez.

Nature sucks – another bear took one out, for unknown reasons. Apparently no litter of four has survived intact since they started tracking.

I LOVE THEM.

Also love seeing enthusiasm around Fat Bear Week again, not often so many people are excited about National Parks stuff and it warms my cold, cold heart.

@Snackness omg, 747 is sure numbered right, that baby is a JUMBO JET.

Snackness

@Tez Right!? I love him, but I’m sort of a die-hard Holly fan.

I was talking to a friend about fat bear week, and another friend who was partially overhearing our conversation got a really weird look on their face. When I asked what was wrong, they were like ‘wtf you guys talking about?’. I explained and they looked really relieved suddenly. They replied with, ‘that is NOT what I thought you were talking about’

As for the bears, I feel conflicted about who to vote for this year.

Third Eye

So far I think 747 but I CAN’T DECIDE YET.

Tez

@Third-Eye TEAM 747. THE URSIRPER.

Snackness

@Testament A very different week.

Snackness

@Third-Eye I wish they would show before/afters of them because I weigh (lol) my votes on how much fatter over time.

ETA: Found before/afters here…https://explore.org/meet-the-bears

This might swing my vote to 856.

@Snackness 901 chunked up, too. Damn.

Tez

@Snackness fight me
