There is little as exciting as seeing a large bear up close. And there is little more foolish than doing what the folks in this photo are doing as this large boar walked through the line of cars along the road. I was quite a ways down the road using a telephoto lens. Other folks were literally within feet. One guy already within a single car length of the bear actually walked BACKWARD to get more into the middle of the road to get a better photo of the bear as it approached. Denali park regulations state that as a bear approaches within 50 yards, visitors are required to be within 2 yards of their vehicles. Much closer than that, and visitors should be INSIDE their vehicles. Treating bears so brazenly as is illustrated in these pictures is not only foolish, but it shows a distinct lack of respect for the bears and the park. I am ashamed. Rangers were present for most bear encounters this day, but they arrived a bit late to take this situation under control...
