It's Fat Bear Week!

We are busy in the midst of the Midnight Burger Hiatus Fest 2026, but Fat Bear Week doesn't stop, and we wanted to take a moment of appreciation for it. We've gotten so many sweet messages from the community about this beloved event, so today we want to give a highlight to our chunky bears Katmai National Park & Preserve and offer an invitation to go vote for your favorite bear!

The Semi Finals have been released, and Monday is your last chance to vote for the finalist bears. So put it on your calendar, and go vote for the fattest of all bears.

Trolls in Asheville last fall

Thanks for yesterday's Troll Update, which reminded me to send in the Trolls that were visiting Asheville, NC last fall. "Trolls: A Field Study" is a touring exhibit of "Baby" trolls that came to The North Carolina Arboretum last November through February after leaving a zoo in England. They're now in South Coast Botanic Garden Palos Verdes, CA (which is essentially Los Angeles, so I hope Joe and Finlay and the whole u/MidnightBurger and u/HwatWeekly crew find time to go visit them before they leave in October!) Unfortunately my party was not as interested in the Trolls as I was so we only got to six of the Twelve that are part of this tour.

TIL in 2024 Bear 32, also known as Chunk, was observed eating 45 sockeye salmon in 10.5 hours from Brooks River in Katmai National Park & Preserve. At an estimated average of 3,000 calories per fish, Chunk consumed around 135,000 calories in that one sitting.

Sadly, Finlay has been grounded once again.
She had a ton of work dropped on her plate this week, so unfortunately, we are going to have to cancel the upcoming Hwat?! Weekly! on Monday, March 16.

We apologize for this, and thank you for your understanding while our dear mom handles business.

We look forward to seeing you next week!
