You may have seen a brown bear catch and eat salmon, but have you ever seen a bear catch and eat flounder?
During the summer of 2015, cameras were attached to GPS tracking collars on two bears to gather data on how bears interact with their environment. The collars recorded one minute of video every ten minutes from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. The video footage provides biologists with a ground-truthing ability to accurately analyze the bears’ habitat selection. This adds great depth to our knowledge of their needs and preferred habitats. Read more about the Changing Tides project at nps.gov/katm/learn/changing-tides.htm.
