Brown bears weigh upward of 700 pounds (315 kilograms), even as omnivores. The most commonly eaten kinds of plants are fleshy roots, fruits, berries, grasses, and forbs. If they are on the hunt, their prey can include fish (especially salmon), rodents like ground squirrels, carrion, and hoofed animals like moose, elk, caribou, and deer. Brown bears can run pretty fast, reaching speeds of up to 35 miles per hour for very short sprints. #funfacts #bears #wildlife #nature

Saving the Sagebrush Biome America’s wide-open sagebrush range stretches across 13 states and 382,000 square miles. It’s the largest contiguous open space in the Lower 48 and one of the most intact ecosystems on Earth, on par with the Amazon or the Serengeti. Despite years of measures to protect this habitat, however, the sagebrush biome is disappearing fast. Scientists say it's time to flip the script to conserve what's left of the shrinking sagebrush biome. Want to learn more?

When the only Thanksgiving leftovers are cranberry sauce... In the seven years Maria Barroso has been photographing wildlife, she’s always had one “dream picture” in mind: a cheetah staring down the camera after a kill. On her fifth trip to Africa in as many years, Barroso finally had her chance. “We were on the Jeep; we saw some wildebeests hanging back; and there were three cheetahs there,” says Barroso. “I turned to my friend and said, ‘I think I’m going to get my picture.’ Then the kill happened right in front of us. One of the cheetahs was eating. Then she looked at me, and oh my God. I got my picture.” 🥇: People’s Choice Award Winner 📸: Maria Barroso 2024 National Wildlife Photo Contest: Honorable Mentions & People’s Choice 📲: https://ow.ly/RG3j50XAWOX #photography #nature #wildlife #cheetah #contest
