Grizzley Salmon Fishing pattern - It looks like this bear is a brown bear named Otis at Katmai Falls in Alaska. Can any one confirm this? I believe the pattern was prepared by Moodboard - Corbis. Thanks. -- Margo Hauser from Victoria, BC

- Hi Margo, I think that would be a grizzly (not brown bear), but I'm looking into the image source. By the way, I love Victoria, BC -- Marv from Crosstitch.com -- May 19
- Ok, yes, these grizzlies are at Katmai National Park Alaska, and are actually called Brown Bears, and not the same species as our smaller brown or black bear. I can't find any name associated with the original photo so I can't say if it's Otis. -- Marv from Crosstitch.com -- May 20
- Thank you Marv. That's what I thought. I knew they were larger than regular Brown Bears so that explaination makes perfect sense. I have been following these bears for several years. They are so recognizable. Check out www.explore.org -- Margo Hauser from Victoria, BC, Canada -- May 20
