When a grizzly steps on your face…

Jaime Johnson

WILDLIFE WATCHING -- Jaime Johnson, a professional photographer from Montana, recently put a video camera on the bank of an Alaska river where brown bears were frequently walking in search of salmon. The result gets my stomp of approval.

Let’s just say the camera got a very, very close-up view of the grizzly. It’s what you would see if a grizzly were about to walk over your face.
