(WXYZ) - Even Alaskan bears get their own webcams nowadays.
The Brown Bear and Salmon Cam was set up in the Katmai National Park and Preserve in Alaska so viewers around the world could watch the grizzlies as they catch their midday meal.
Explore.org set up the live stream and during the bears' peak feeding times, viewers can watch the burly animals wait patiently, pounce, and emerge victorious with a meal.
The webcam's popularity is quickly growing too. The hashtag # Bearcam has been steadily trending on Twitter.
