How are bears so huge? If I ate nothing but berries and salmon I'd probably be really slender.

Salmon runs are in the fall right when bears are trying to bulk up for winter hibernation.

Spring they mostly subsist on roots, grasses, and other vegetation and insects, and summer is when the berries ripen so they take advantage of that.
