So I've recently been watching "The Grizzly Man Diaries" on Animal Planet. It's a documentary of grizzly bear like in Katmai National Park in Alaska. I'm not sure exactly what brought me to push "record" on our DVR for this show, I guess I was just...curious. This guy, Timothy Treadwell, started studying the grizzly in Alaska in 1990. Unfortunately, his life ended in October of 2003 due to a bear attacking and killing him and his girlfriend. We are only on the 6th episode of this series, so I'm excited to watch what will be shown in the next episode and those after.
From what I'v read, Timothy Treadwell was an environmental activist and traveled throughout the US to educate children about grizzly bears. He also co wrote "Among Grizzlies: Living With Wild Bears in Alaska" and also created the documentary called "Grizzly Man" which was about his work with wildlife in Alaska (it aired on the Discovery Channel).
Anyways, just thought I'd entertain you all with whats been on our tv for the past month. Hope everyone is doing well.
Oh and I have now decided where our next vacation will be....not somewhere tropical but to Alaska. However, I need to do my research as in when is the best time to visit Alaska! If anyone has any tips/notes let me know!
