is at the lake too.
He can finally catch
his first fish.
But there's still
the same problem.
When you find a good spot,
you can rarely enjoy it alone,
and as bears don't like
close contact,
tension mounts quickly
between the mothers.
over the course
of the next few days,
when the largest group of bears
in the world
gather at the lake.
The mothers eventually
get into the water...
...where they can fish in peace.
Well, not exactly in peace.
As soon as the mothers
manage to catch a fish,
the cubs steal it away
from them.
The food isn't shared equally.
without fish.
Half of all bear cubs die
before the age of two
due to brother-and-sister
rivalry, hunger,
disease and accidents.
A mother bear spends her entire
day taking care of her cubs,
and it's only in the evening,
when she's sure
that they have eaten enough,
that she can finally
fish for herself.
The young bear
has found a calm spot
away from the mothers
and all the commotion.
But does he really fish
like an adult,
or does he still play
like a cub?
He's now at the crucial age
where he can spend his first
year alone, without his mother,
learning to survive on his own.
He's young,
so any female his age
that comes near him
is a distraction
from the task at hand.
he's felt the urge to mate.
He still has a lot to learn
about that, too.
But when he does,
he will no longer just ensure
his own survival.
He will also contribute to the
perpetuation of his species.
A mother bear arrives.
She is young,
and, as usual with the first
litter, she only has one cub.
She'll pamper, feed
and protect him
until he reaches the age
where he can venture out alone.
Then he will leave her.
It's the last summer
he'll spend with his mother.
So he enjoys it.
He plays and runs around
in the waves and the wind,
carefree,
savouring every moment.
Summer is almost over.
Kamchatka - except for winter.
That lasts for months.
The bears have to begin
preparing for it now.
The salmon continue
their journey.
Thousands of them swim upriver,
driven by
an irrepressible instinct
to get to their birthplace
and spawn.
Once they're in fresh water,
they stop eating and drinking.
Their bodies
change mysteriously,
becoming deformed and reddened,
and then they rot.
is now the river
Some are so exhausted...
...they just give up.
Others continue the fight,
swimming against all the odds.
Those who still have
the energy to swim
will lay millions of eggs
that will become
millions of salmon,
