Guess this kind of answers how many bears a beached whale will feed:

Info that I rec'd:

Photo taken from the air over Kodiak Island. The bears are feeding on a whale carcass that can be seen near the beach. The pilot who took this photo said that there were just as many bears on the hillside (outside of the picture) as were on the beach�..

I count 42 in the picture. So another 42 on the hillside makes about 85 bears. Gotta be a couple of shooters in there!!!
