2000 bears, 500 million salmon, and Giles

Not our Giles though, but a photographer called Giles Breton who is off to Kodiak Island, Alaska to spend some time with 2000 kodiak bears. These BEARS need to chow down on enough salmon to put on 3-6 pounds of weight…. per day, until November. This way, they’ll be fat enough to sleep easy in their caves in the mountains during the icy winter that’s not far off now. And Giles is going to photograph it all wearing one of our t-shirts. Here’s a little about how he’s preparing for the trip:

“We hope to capture the best bear images ever taken during the annual salmon run. I dont know exactly where on Kodiak we will be but it will be totally remote. I’m doing quite a bit of fitness work not because its a hard trek every day but to ensure i can run faster than at least 2 of the other bear watchers on this trip. [A] bear will always chase you down and we dont want that to be me (nor anyone else if im honest). My diet is important and part of that is, of course, to have BEAR granola in the mornings.”

We can’t wait to see the photos; just watch this first Giles.
