Anchorage, Alaska.

This is an orphaned Grizzly Bear in Alaska. This is just a shame. Bears are usually wonderful mothers. Hunting is mostly unnecessary. It's wrong. This little bear feels his mother's loss and we have no right to interfer in nature's plan.

This is Kenai, orphaned grizzly cub. Mom was shot by a person hunting grouse. His dog got into it with the mom and brought her back to the hunter. He shot the mom. He is a cute little guy and is still pretty flighty. I shoot an average of 500-1,000 pictures a week. I am way behind on my photo editing. But, I thought I would take time to put this one up.
