But in the end, Chunk got Grazered,” Katmai National Park wrote on X."Let’s crown our Queen that’s thicker than a bowl of oatmeal, 128 Grazer!" Grazer, an 18-year-old with blond ears and light brown fur, is renowned for her dominance. So much so that even the most alpha male bears on the river give her a wide berth.
