Editor's note: An earlier version of this story stated that the bear cam was a live stream. We have since updated the story to note that the stream is prerecorded video from last season.

Thanks to a $150,000 grant, we're able to watch the largest sockeye salmon run in the world via an operator-controlled stream. While this year's live stream won't be up for a few weeks, you can enjoy the prerecorded video from last season for the time being.
