I know this isn't a LaTeX list, but with this many physicists there

I'm trying to comply with accessibility requirements on my campus,
and the first step is to figure out how to add alt tags to an image
in a .pdf that I created from LaTeX. (I'll worry about equations
next, right now it's one step at a time.) I don't see an option for
this in the \includegraphics command. I know that LaTeX2html can
create accessible html documents with alt tags on the images, but
what if I want to create a .pdf rather than an html document? I did
a lot of Googling, and I checked Lamport's book, and I found nothing.
I learned some LaTex last year but I forgot most of it. Here a segment
from my source code (a file with the extension tex) that worked with
the compiler I downloaded. The file {bear.jpg} specified in the third
line, had to be in the same folder as the source file.
