Thanks! And yes, we had a much more peaceful interaction from our little zodiac. That photo on Google is from a tour boat that is allowed just part ways into the inlet. We only saw it once during the week we were there. There are just two zodiacs that are allowed into the estuary at the end of the inlet, so the whole sanctuary is very well controlled. Regardless, the bears really don't care at all about people and rarely even raise their heads to look at you (which means you end up with lots of shots with their faces in the grass).
