Russia·Kamchatka | The closest I got to a brown bear was only 1 meter

🇷🇺Russia·Kamchatka | The closest I got to a brown bear was only 1 meter🐻 ✅People say Russians are a 'warrior nation,' and brown bears have no status in Russia, only to be ruthlessly toyed with. However, on the Kamchatka Peninsula, one of Russia's Far East regions, you can get up close and personal with brown bears! 📍The Kamchatka Peninsula is located in the northeastern part of Asia, with a population density of less than 1 person per square kilometer. It can be said to be a true 'ghost place'👻! There are over 300 volcanoes🌋, endless dense forests, and winding rivers, preserving the appearance of the Earth in its infancy. 🧭So, where are the brown bears? By Lake Kuril. Lake Kuril is the largest spawning ground for red salmon in Eurasia🐟. Every summer, nearly ten million salmon come here to spawn, naturally becoming a 'brown bear cafeteria'🐻. 💡Thousands of brown bears live here, making it the best place in the world to observe brown bears. With the accompaniment of professional guides, as long as you follow safety regulations☑️, you can watch brown bears from a very close distance🔭! 🐻Brown bears are huge but extremely fast. When fishing, mother bears often bring their cubs and wait by the river, easily catching a plump salmon with a swipe. 📷While observing brown bears, you will see the distant volcanoes and Lake Kuril blending together, making it an excellent spot. Don't forget to set up your camera and take as many photos as you can!
