Land of the Bears

00:03:11 Kamchatka.

00:04:46 In their dens, life has slowed down for the bears.

00:06:43 away from the twin sister he grew up with.

00:09:31 and all around it, cold and snow.

00:13:33 in the heat of the geysers.

00:16:59 A family - a mother and her cubs.

00:20:11 Not far away, at the top of the mountains

00:22:47 No. Bears are a combination of power and gentleness.

00:27:45 the big bear knows that it's not time to leave yet.

00:30:04 They have spent six to eight months in their dens

00:35:15 The bears have waited months for this moment-

00:37:52 where they took shelter

00:43:55 to stuff themselves with salmon, as many as 50 a day

01:04:08 a never-ending cycle of life.

01:08:12 to find the last remaining salmon.

01:12:08 The young bear feels lost

01:14:55 and doing it all over again.

01:18:59 Then they'll have to separate.

01:20:48 A few weeks later, it's winter again in Kamchatka.
