Excerpt from Wild Among Us : As I walked slowly along the trail with my friend, my heart pounded in my chest, and my body sweated profusely. I wanted to run, but I knew I couldn’t and shouldn’t. We were being stalked by a large grizzly bear and her cub. It started when I had walked to the beach front at Kaknek Lake in Alaska; I surprised a grizzly bear and her cub. When she saw me, she growled. I backed away slowly, my head hunched over to convey to the mother bear that I wasn’t a threat to her or her cub. After what seemed like an eternity, I finally made my way back to the trailhead and Sandy. We proceeded to walk to the campground. As we proceeded slowly, step by step, I could see the unhappy bear in the corner of my eye staring at us the whole time. This stalk and walk process seemed to go on forever. I thought, My place in the Alaskan food chain is crystal clear. - Pat Toth-Smith, professional wildlife photographer
