Brown Bears Are Mostly Solitary.
.
Aside from mothers with cubs or gatherings at salmon streams, brown bears prefer to live and hunt alone.

Otis!!! He is about 27 years young and since the fish were late arriving, so was he. You can watch all the bears fishing at https://explore.org/livecams/brown-bears/brown-bear-salmon-cam-brooks-falls

"Just before 6 p.m. eastern on July 26 — the very same day 480 Otis emerged from hibernation in 2021 — fans spotted the park’s beloved brown bear on a live camera at Brooks Falls in Alaska.

This year, the grizzly bear seen holding a fresh salmon and trudging through the water was late to his usual hunting spot at Katmai National Park. It’s not that Otis hit snooze on his alarm — you can blame climate change.

“The last time he showed up this late, salmon were also late, and the salmon were late this year as well,” said Candice Rusch, a spokesperson with Explore.org, the site that runs the 24/7 live cameras at Katmai National Park. “What we’ve been seeing in Alaska is that the salmon run has been trending later into July, which means for bears like Otis waiting longer to eat that salmon.”
