The river is so named because bears live on every side of it - up over the falls and down below them. Bears are everywhere; they block the path, steal their food, bring hunters too close for comfort.

Survival on Alaska's Brooks River is a true story of the author's bear-wrestling escapades in the Brooks River valley. When Michael begins to research his book, he discovers that locals bear wrestling has declined dramatically over recent decades. The reason for this is not clear, but it is believed that humans might be the leading cause of the decline. Prehistoric humans and bears shared much of their environment and were often hunting partners or adversaries in their respective territories. Bears were once widespread across North America until they were hunted to extinction by Europeans around 1650 AD. In many regions, grizzlies are now returning as part of an "rewilding" movement where people are releasing bears into previously developed areas because these animals will adapt to any habitat
