Join host Jeff Corwin on an adventure to the great state of Alaska as he connects with the iconic North American brown bear. Jeff learns how people and bears coexist in Alaska and how we all share a common resource: salmon. Jeff travels into the Alaskan wilderness to observe brown bears up close and finds a mother bear with two cubs, a wild fox, and even watches bears hunt for salmon. Later, Jeff learns how the people of Alaska are managing the salmon across the state, ensuring this vital resource is sustainable for future generations.
