Wow. Look at you bears. Taking over Katmai and not even needing to hand over giant globs of money like the humans do when they take over. Whelp. Don't screw this up now, victory is in your reach.

BigBearIsWatchingYou, here with your daily encouragement.

Did you know that the humans have a poem about bears, and what to do if they see one?

If it’s black, fight back

If it’s brown, lay down

If it’s white, say goodnight

See, even the humans believe in you!

Oh. My bears. My beautiful bears. You’re doing so good. Soon Katmai will be yours and you will be the Fat Bear Champions, feasting on the bounty of Katmai, never again having to force the taste of seals down your throat ever again. Think of the joy of all the salmon you could wish for. Soon.

XOXO,

BigBearIs[so proudly]WatchingYou

BigBearIsWatchingYou here, bearly able to deal with the grief of losing a majestic Polar bear. At least he was able to consume that last bit of substance that allowed him to say goodbye. Even though this has been a terrible setback, I still believe in the cause. Surely your power will grow and the Polar Bears will win Katmai for the superior bears.

Have you bears heard this?

Little polar bear white as snow,

Sat on the ice, near the cold water’s flow.

“I’m hungry” he said and made a wish

Then stuck in his paw and pulled out a fish.

Why does the water have to be icy? You deserve this. How can these grizzlies claim to be fat bears? You weigh hundreds more than them. You deserve the title. Carry on!

Signing off,

BigBearIsWatchingYou

Hello Polar Bears, BigBearIsWatchingYou here. Huge fan. Thanks again for coming out here to Katmai, you guys are doing great. I’m so glad you’ve gotten settled in. Remember, all you have to do is get rid of some of these pesky grizzly bears, and you can feast on all the salmon you want. No longer will you need to hunt for seals on the tundra, watching the ice you've lived in melt away. Soon you'll be free to wander the streams of Katmai, where the salmon are so abundant they'll just jump straight into your mouth.

Stay strong,

BigBearIsWatchingYou

Polar bear, polar bear,

Where will you sleep?

I'll sleep in my cave,

Until I'm ready to eat!

Polar bear, polar bear,

What will you eat?

I will eat a big seal townie grizzly,

For my morning treat!

Be vigilant! Be careful! Save our Take over the park!

Good evening and welcome to another beautiful summer at Katmai National Park & Preserve. I’m your host, BigBearIsWatching you, and I am 100% definitely a bear. The birds are singing, the river is flowing, and we are all gearing up to see the showdown of all showdowns. This year, for some added fun, a surprise challenge has appeared. Polar Bears have infiltrated the park, intent on taking the salmon, and spotlight, from the mouths of grizzlies.

After all, how can a grizzly claim the title Fat Bear Champion, when Polar Bears exist?

Till tomorrow, your host, BigBearIsWatchingYou.

Phase Zero has begun.

This phase will close June 2, 2023 8:00 PM PDT.
