Everyone, meet Otis! Also known as the 'Fat Bear Champion'.

He’s not the most dominant or lively bear around, but he is heading into the winter season with a whopping 1000 pounds, making him a real winner!

It’s time to pack it on in the bear world, as these animals get ready for hibernation. Otis, the Kodiak bear from Alaska, is almost 20 years old, and has perfected his salmon catching technique!

“It’s survival of the fattest in the bear world” according to the Katmai National Park & Preserve Facebook Page, who run a #FatBearTuesday contest.

Otis has won for the fattest of the fat for the second year running, with his ‘lazy’ but successful strategy; take a look:

“With patience and learned experience, Otis saves his energy by remaining in one place all day, converting salmon into the maximum amount of lard around his belly. It’s earned him his second title for fattest bear, but also earned him a great chance at surviving the long, harsh winter ahead. Otis may not be the most dominant or lively bear around, but he is the fattest. Cheers to you, Otis.” – Katmai National Park & Preserve.

Way to go Otis! You rock those extra pounds!
