Mother Grizzly Bear with Cubs ATTACKS Eagle Nest! (RARE Wild Footage)

"Mother Grizzly Bear with Cubs ATTACKS Eagle Nest! RARE Footage of Bear vs. Eagle - Wild Nature Footage in Alaska (Bear Attacks Eagle Nest) Mother Grizzly Bear and Cubs ATTACKED and ATE Baby Eaglets"

Hello everyone! Today I have the privilege to show you all RARE footage of a mother grizzly bear and her cubs attacking an eagle nest! The picture every photographer wants to get in Alaska is a bear and an eagle...well, we managed to get an entire battle on camera between the two. We visited Katmai National Park in southwestern Alaska from June 5th to June 7th, 2018 and participated in activities very few people in the world are able to do. We stayed at a place called the Katmai Wilderness Lodge, where the guides are experts on grizzly bears and take you out to see them - VERY close.

On June 5th, we saw this mother grizzly and her cubs for the first time resting on the side of a cliff. We got some great photos and passed by her several more times throughout the day. On June 6th, however, we saw something very different. In a spot not too far from where she was the previous day, we saw an eagles' nest on a dead tree on the side of a cliff. Two eagles were sitting on it and the mother grizzly was very close to them. The grizzly bear and her cubs were eating grass right next to the nest, and the eagles were very frightened. They likely annoyed the bear too much, and she decided to attack the nest! She jumped right into the nest, and ate the eaglets that were inside. Her cubs watched from a short distance away all while the mother grizzly bear was getting dive-bombed by the eagles flying above. All of the footage you see in this video was recorded by my father from the boat we were on. We were a mere 50-60 feet away from this entire battle, and it was such an incredible sight, it is likely we'll never see this again.

Within two minutes, everything was finished, and the mother grizzly went on with her day back up the hill away from the nest. The eagles sat there in despair for several hours after their babies were eaten. By June 8th, the eagles abandoned their nest, and have not returned since. They have now learned their lesson to not make a nest within reach of a grizzly bear!

As I said in the video in the beginning, I apologize for the slight shakiness in the footage. Considering we were on the ocean in a boat with 4-5 foot waves, the footage is still incredible. I spent a long time trying to edit it to stabilize it, and I hope it turned out alright.

I hope you are as shocked as I was after seeing this footage. I would greatly appreciate a like rating alongside checking out another video I will link below where I captured footage of two grizzly bears walking within 25 feet of us on land. Who were you rooting for in the battle? Eagle or bear? Let me know in the comments!
