Managed to get lucky catch the bears at Grouse Mountains feeding near the fence;

Nice sharp shots,was this in the wild.A fence wouldn't make me feel safe around theses brutes.

Don't think I'd be brave enough to get anywhere close to them in the wild, haha.. There are 2 rescue bears in captivity at the top of Grouse Mountain in Vancouver. The fence is electrified.... It was still quite surreal being that close to them

Beautiful shots. Haven't seen ones quite like it...I mean the shots. Nice comp. Sharp too.

They (Grinder and Coola) are a pretty interesting story. I remember watching a good documentary about them, several years ago.
