"Being Alone, Animals, and Bad: Katmai National Park&Preserve added 3 new photos.  Yesterday at 1:03pm-  The people have spoken. 480 Otis has been voted the #FatBearTuesday  Champion! It was a close race, and many worthy opponents gave it their all,  which we applaud them for. Not all bears have what it takes to survive in the  unforgiving land of Alaska, let alone make as prosperous a living as 480  Otis. Needing to eat a year's worth of food in less than 6 months is a difficult  obstacle to overcome. It's survival of the fattest in the bear world, and 480  Otis has found some seriously successful strategies for plumping up.  Fishing primarily in the far pool (AKA Otis's office,) 480 stays out of harm's  way, avoiding more dominant bears like 856 and 747, who prefer to fish in  the productive ""jacuzzi"" area. With patience and learned experience, Otis  saves his energy by remaining in one place all day, converting salmon into  the maximum amount of lard around his belly. It's earned him his second  title for fattest bear, but also earned him a great chance at surviving the  long, harsh winter ahead. Otis may not be the most dominant or lively bear  around, but he is the fattest. Cheers to you, Otis.  <p><a href=""https://i-am-jayde.tumblr.com/post/167916115551/triplehamburgerjack-rosepetalbath-im-proud"" class=""tumblr_blog"">i-am-jayde</a>:</p><blockquote> <p><a class=""tumblr_blog"" href=""http://triplehamburgerjack.tumblr.com/post/152159094071"">triplehamburgerjack</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a class=""tumblr_blog"" href=""http://rosepetalbath.tumblr.com/post/152037603835"">rosepetalbath</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>I'm proud of him</p> </blockquote> <p>He is just fucking great.</p> </blockquote> <p>Fat pets who are obviously unhealthy:  Bad</p> <p>Wild animals who are fat because of humans:  Bad</p> <p>Wild animals who are supposed to be fat:  Good</p> <p>Wild animals who have gotten super fat because they're just that good at survival:  Very Good</p> </blockquote>"
