Overview
Kodiak Island in the Gulf of Alaska is home to the largest bear on earth, the Kodiak Bear.

Film maker Stefan Quinth spent three years filming the Kodiak Bear and the wildlife of Kodiak Island. His film is a dramatic story about bear and salmon, beavers and eagles. But it is also a film about the thrill of meeting the giant bear eye to eye in its natural habitat.
