Fat Albert

We had about 6 people on a boat near Barter island Alaska and had been taking pictures all day for 3 Days and where about all Beared out when this big fella came around, needless to say we were all aghast to how huge he was and our guide mentioned that it was the largest bear he had ever seen in his 25 years in the village. Coincidentally the villagers had just harvested a whale the day before, to which they cut away pieces and transport it out about 4 miles from the the village to help keep the bears (about 30 of them) from disrupting the harvest. We believe he must have been the Alpha and received his Kings share of the bounty.
