@Sketchy I had no idea this was a rematch of the '23 finals! That longevity & dominance is crazy impressive.

@Ziddletwix These two are just unstoppable behemoths of chonk

@Ziddletwix I was also just reading that it's personal between Grazer and Chunk, as Chunk literally killed one of Grazer's cubs:

128 is a particularly defensive mother bear who has successfully raised two litters of cubs. She often preemptively confronts and attacks much larger bears—even large and dominant adult males—in order to ensure her cubs are safe. On an afternoon in July 2024, both of her first-year cubs were swept over Brooks Falls. The water carried both siblings toward 32 "Chunk," the most dominant bear on the river and 32 attacked. 128 rushed to defend her cubs, although not before 32 injured the cub nearest him. The cub later died from its injuries. The surviving cub went on to compete in Fat Bear Junior 2024.

@Sketchy woooooow that's absolutely nuts lol. we don't have blood feuds like this anymore in human sports

This year’s semi-finals are going to be an exciting round! Four fat bears are fighting it out in today’s polls. Going head to head are two past runners-up: 32 Chunk🐻 and 151 Walker🐻! And 903 Gully🐻 is taking on last year’s winner 128 Grazer🐻! Vote now for who you want to see in tomorrow’s finals! 🗳 https://explore.org/fat-bear-week

The fight between a male brown bear and an older female — one of the contestants last year known as Bear 402 — unfolded at the mouth of the Brooks River in Katmai, a protected area on the Alaskan peninsula that draws some of the region's largest grizzlies to feed on sockeye salmon, according to the National Park Service. The bears are currently hunting the end of the seasonal salmon run as they prepare to enter hibernation during the coming winter months.

@Sketchy The bears are fighting each other to the death?? This is not in the spirit of friendly competition!

In honor of Fat Bear Week officially beginning please enjoy this picture of a black bear stealing food from my campsite last weekend

Sadly this chonky boi is ineligible to win.

"909" != "909 Jr", right? (so "909 Jr" is part of "other", IIUC?)

@Ziddletwix Crap yes, I had intended to add them all but clearly mixed that up. Added!
