From the coloration of the bear posted above; my guess would be Syrian brown bear. But other subspecies are capable of producing blondes as well.

Perhaps the Siberian brown bear subspecies Ursus arctos collaris.

Perhaps the Siberian brown bear subspecies Ursus arctos collaris. That is a possibility yes.

Great picture Tom; I feel the need to Add: www.npr.org/2019/10/09/768475870/stuffed-with-sockeye-salmon-holly-wins-fat-bear-week-heavyweight-title Stuffed With Sockeye Salmon, 'Holly' Wins 'Fat Bear Week' Heavyweight Title October 9, 2019. Fat Bear Week 2019 officially ended Tuesday night. And the winner is ... No. 435, or if you prefer a name, Holly. Fat Bear Week has been an annual event for the past five years in Katmai National Park and Preserve in southwestern Alaska. The idea is to publicize and celebrate the process of bears eating as much as they can to build up crucial fat reserves in advance of winter hibernation. Park rangers made a game out of the process — a March Madness-style bracket matching bear against bear, each with photos proving girth and inviting the public to vote on the fattest bear in each pair. It's Fat Bear Week In Alaska's Katmai National Park — Time To Fill Out Your Bracket ANIMALS It's Fat Bear Week In Alaska's Katmai National Park — Time To Fill Out Your Bracket The winners move on to the next round; the losers are out. This year's championship round pitted Holly against No. 775, Lefty. And in the end, it was no contest. After 12 hours of online voting, Holly had about 17,500 votes, while Lefty had about 3,600. Katmai Conservancy Media Ranger Naomi Boak says Holly earned her title. "It was very hard to get a good picture [of Holly] out of the water," she says, "because she was a submarine for the entire month. She did not stop fishing, except to dig a belly hole big enough for her to sleep in." Holly and all of this year's 12 contestants are coastal brown bears that forage along the Brooks River. The Alaskan waterway has one of the largest concentrations of sockeye salmon in the world, and the bears there take full advantage. This year's weeklong competition was a huge success, with a record total of 187,000 votes cast — more than three times last year's total. Along with the novelty and fun of the event, Boak and her fellow Katmai Conservancy media ranger Brooklyn White hope it builds awareness of a natural process and the need to conserve the unique wilderness area of the Brooks River. "Not all bears have this same kind of access to these salmon resources," White says, "and to an ecosystem that has such clean water."

Before and After: She is fat. She is fabulous. She is 435 Holly. And you voted her the 2019 Fat Bear Week Champion. All hail Holly whose healthy heft will help her hibernate until the spring. Long live the Queen of Corpulence!

Yeah... she's a chubby girl. Just more of her to love if you're a male Bear.
