The film received the coveted Cable Ace Award for Best Environmental/Nature Documentary Special on U.S. cable television in 1997. The film team spent almost six months in Kamchatka, filming the complete yearly cycle of the Russian grizzly bear from the emergence of the cubs in the spring to their return to their dens for hibernation in the fall. In addition to the spectacular scenery -- volcanoes, rugged forests, picturesque mountains -- highlights include rarely seen footage of mother bears defending their cubs against aggressive male bears, feeding frenzies, and grizzlies "fishing" for salmon.
