Pictured: A salmon has a lucky escape as it manages to slip away from a hungry bear. The fish manages to evade the brown bear's grasp, diving back into the shallow waters before it is caught. Splashing through the river, the bear continues hunting for its next meal at the Katmai National Park and Preserve, Alaska, USA. Amateur photographer Steve Laycock watched the brown-haired bear from a boat just 50 metres away as the animal scoured the water for prey. SEE OUR COPY FOR FULL DETAILS.
