Black Bear Cub Up a Tree Eating Berries

A black bear cub looks out as it eats berries from a branch in Grand Teton National Park.

Another shot from the other day with the bears along Moose-Wilson Road in Grand Teton National Park. One of the two cubs was a little more ambitious than the others and would repeatedly climb up a small tree of river hawthorn berries to get a better angle when the mother wasn’t pulling the branches down. I was fortunate enough to get quite a few shots of the cub eating, reaching, etc., but this was by far my favorite shot of that series.

Free Roaming Photography, Photography by Mike Cavaroc, is my portfolio and vision of the natural world. As a nature and wildlife photographer, I am striving to reach the angles of landscapes that haven't been documented before as well as finding the dramatic nature of wildlife in its natural state. As a result, every animal photographed on this website was done so in its wild and natural habitat.

Based in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, I thoroughly explore the wonders of Grand Teton National Park and its surrounding areas, including the Gros Ventre Wilderness, Yellowstone National Park and much more.

I've come to love this region much more than anywhere I've lived, and with your helpful support, I can continue to give back to this community that keeps me enthusiastic each and every day. Read more...
