Bear Hunting Season Is Year Round at Bearracuda (Photos)

Started in San Francisco in August 2006, Bearracuda is the largest attended bear dance party and most prolific gay dance event in the U.S. Bearracuda has events in 40 cities across the world, including parties in San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, New York City, London, Austin, Atlanta, and Sydney. The party was voted Best Club for Queer Men in 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 by the San Francisco Bay Guardian. See the bears, cubs, otters, beef on the hoof, and other wildlife at the Seattle party that happened this last weekend at the Seattle Eagle. Check out the Bearracuda Facebook page here. Thanks to Matt Baume for putting himself in harm's way to get these photos of the animal kingdom.
