Timothy Treadwell,

Katmai National Park, Upper Kaflia Lake,

Timothy Treadwell and Amie Huguenard were fatally attacked by a brown bear. There are many articles, and films about the Treadwell incident. Practice caution and sense when camping in bear country. Avoid camping in areas of high bear activity especially in fall, near sources of food.
