The Tracker's Diary: Bears of Katmai

The Trackers’ Diary: Bears of Katmai follows the lives of powerful brown bears in Katmai National Park and Preserve, offering an intimate look at how they survive in one of North America’s most remote wilderness regions. Set against dramatic rivers, forests, and volcanic terrain, the series traces the seasonal cycles that shape their existence, from the peak of the salmon runs to the quiet isolation of winter.

Guided by wildlife trackers and field experts, the documentary captures remarkable moments in the bears’ daily lives, including mothers teaching cubs to fish, dominant males competing for prime feeding grounds, and younger bears learning the skills necessary to endure. Through close observation and breathtaking cinematography, the series reveals the resilience, instinct, and delicate balance that define life in the Alaskan wild.
