It dens up in winter but does not truly hibernate and can be easily awakened. Young weigh only one pound at birth but may grow up to 800-1700 pounds. In August 2001 I had the opportunity to spend 4 days photographing the grizzly bears in Geographic Harbor, Katmai, AK It was a wonderful experience watching these bears fish and play. In the summer of 2003 I will be going to Hallo Bay on Katmai to again photograph these magnificent animals. Home Kenya 1997 Kenya 1999 Yellowstone/Tetons ... Favorite Links

6. Grizzly Bears
   Grizzly bears, a subspecies of brown bears, has lost most of its habitat andis listed under the Endangered Species Act. Grizzly Bears. Warren Garst.  
   http://www.hsus.org/ace/15666
   
   Extractions: Warren Garst The grizzly bear ( Ursus arctos horribilis ) is a subspecies of the brown bear. At one time there were an estimated 50,000 grizzlies in North America. They once were found from the Mississippi River to the coast of California, from Mexico to Canada, but grizzlies now occupy less than 2% of that range. In the United States, where grizzlies are found in Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Washington, and Wyoming, they are listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. Fewer than 1,100 grizzly bears can be found in the continental United States. Grizzlies are highly adaptable to various habitat types: they can flourish in forests, mountains, prairies, wetlands, and even along the shore. They will dig beds in shady spots in which to sit out the heat of the day. They hibernate in the winter when food is scarce, living off stored body fat, which not only supplies energy but also keeps them warm. However, most parts of the historic U.S. grizzly range no longer contain sufficient contiguous habitat to support a viable grizzly population. The Yellowstone area holds the most promise, but even here an important food source, the whitebark pine, is expected to be completely lost because of exotic disease and/or global climate change. It isn't always easy to distinguish a grizzly bear from a brown or black bear (it's better to check the ears, which on a grizzly are round and smaller). A grizzly's coat can be any shade from black to blond, though it's usually brown. The name "grizzly" was inspired by light tips on the fur of the bear's head and shoulders. Grizzlies are heavier than black bears, though: the males average 500 lbs; and the females average 375 lbs. When on all fours, grizzlies stand between 3.5 and 4 feet; when standing upright, they reach 6 to 7 feet.

   Extractions: mission... The Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center's primary mission is to provide visitors to the Yellowstone area an opportunity to learn about, view and ultimately appreciate the grizzly bear and gray wolf. Grizzly bears that are unable to live in the wild have a second chance. By helping with the education of visitors, their lives may help other bears remain in the wild. The greatest threat to grizzlies and wolves is the loss of desirable, life-sustaining areas to raise their families. Wilderness is not a renewable resource. If it is possible for humans and wildlife to co-exist, we must endeavor to know as much about their needs to minimize the negative impacts of our environment.

    Extractions: Bears are fascinating to people. Think of all the ways we have included them in our lives often a child's first toy is a teddy bear, Smokey Bear reminds us to keep our forest safe, bear hugs are thought to be the best, Big Blue Bear is beloved by millions of preschoolers and Pooh bear has movies, a clothing line and decorates more childrens rooms than any other bear. This isn't complete list of how bears are represented in our lives, nor is it a new phenomena, our fascination with bears goes back to man's ancient history and the evidence is in nearly every culture. Bears, Polar Bear, Grizzly Bear, Black and Brown Bear Zoos report more people flock to see the bears more than nearly any other exhibit. Children and adults alike are in awe of brown bears, grizzly bears, polar bears, Panda bears or any bear! We want bears to be around for thousands of years to come, and this site is dedicated to educating people about bears so we will be able to continue enjoying the fascination. The first step to preserve this fascination is education. “Bears are not companions of men, but children of God, and His charity is broad enough

    Extractions: Feature Articles ... Search Grizzly Bear Information Sheet "British Columbia is one of the few places in the world which still has significant populations of both black bears and grizzlies. However, as our population grows, we encroach on bear habitat, driving them further into ever shrinking wilderness. Humans have become the single biggest threat to BC's bears." Background Though there are issues associated with black bears (Ursus americanus) , as a species they are not at risk. In contrast, grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) are no longer found in 99% of their former habitat in the lower 48 states and Mexico. A 1990 COSEWIC (Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada) review of grizzly bear populations designated over 60% of grizzly bears as either vulnerable or threatened and all were considered at risk. Grizzly bears are notoriously difficult to census. Population estimates for British Columbia vary from 6,000 to 12,000 (about half the remaining population in Canada). Mount Revelstoke and Glacier National Parks are used extensively by grizzly bears but most leave the park at times during their annual travels. These parks are too small to provide enough habitat for a viable population.

    Defenders of Wildlife 1101 Fourteenth St. on their back and shoulders often have white tips and give the bears a "grizzled" appearance, hence the name "grizzly."

    Extractions: Grizzly bears are also called brown bears, and are found throughout the Preserve. Bears on the Seward Peninsula are not the largest members of this species, but 500 pound (230 kg.) bears can be seen here on occasion. Brown bears are most common in the mountains north of Nome and the population in the Preserve is fairly small. There are no black bears in or near the Preserve. Bears are actively hunted throughout the region and tend to be shy around people. Most visitors to the region will never see a bear. Grizzlies are omnivorous. Their diet varies by the season and includes grasses, roots, berries, nuts, insects, fish, rodents, and sometimes small and large mammals. Brown bears on the Seward Peninsula don't depend a lot on salmon like they do in other areas of the state because salmon runs here are often small and salmon streams are few. Brown bears can conceal themselves remarkably well in the low brush along hill sides. Although they will normally not attack a human, they will defend their young or their food if approached too closely. They have an excellent sense of smell, good hearing, and are extremely powerful. They are naturally curious, and caution should be taken when in their presence. Visitors planning to hike, birdwatch, or travel across country should get information on traveling though bear country before starting. Try not to surprise bears. Make noise - talk loud, use bells, or shake stones in a can to announce your presence. If you meet a bear, yield the right-of-way by moving slowly away.

    Extractions: Anatomy : Grizzly Bears are up to 7 feet (2.1 m) long and weigh up to 1,500 pounds (680 kg). Females are about 2/3 the size of males. Their thick fur ranges in color from black to brown to reddish brown to blond. They have dense fur close to the skin and long, coarse guard hairs that become silver tipped as the bears age, giving them a grizzled appearance (and their name). They have a big head, a long muzzle, and a large hump on their shoulder (a mass of muscles that give the front legs extra strength). Like all bears, they are plantigrade (flat-footed). The front claws are up to 4.75 inches (12 cm), almost twice as long as the rear claws. Newborns weigh only about 1 pound (0.45 kg), the size of a rat.

    Extractions: Home Contact Us Search Conservation ... Get Outdoors Grizzly Bears The grizzly is a symbol of the American wilderness and one of the nation's most beautiful and imposing creatures. Lewis and Clark found a healthy grizzly population when they explored Idaho's Bitterroot Mountains in the early 19th century. As the nation expanded westward, grizzly numbers plummeted due to unchecked hunting and trapping. The grizzly is now "threatened" in the lower 48 states. To restore grizzlies to the Selway-Bitterroot ecosystem, NWF developed the innovative Citizen Management Plan. Despite widespread support, the plan was recently abandoned by Interior Secretary Gale Norton. Our Focus Grizzly Bear Recovery in the Bitterroot Ecosystem Report finds forest management trends positive for Bitterroot grizzly restoration. Grizzlies can run 25 mph, and swim across lakes and rivers. Cub less than a year old are adept at climbing. As they age and their claws grow longer, they lose the ability to use claws in climbing, but they still may climb to some degree by stepping on branches, much like a human would do.

Wierzchowski (Geomar Consulting Ltd.) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Cumulative effects modelling was developed in the 1980’s to quantitatively and qualitatively assess the cumulative effects of human activity on grizzly bear habitat and habitat use in specified areas of grizzly bear range. The Eastern Slopes Grizzly Project is an interagency, multi-stakeholder research project designed to understand and predict the cumulative effects of development on grizzly bears along the eastern slopes of the Rockies including Banff National Park. Results from the Eastern Slopes Grizzly Bear Project will provide concrete answers to questions regarding the impacts of humans on grizzly bears in the Central Canadian Rockies including Banff National Park. However, impending land-use decisions in the Lake Louise area of Banff National Park made that area of special concern to Parks Canada.

    Extractions: While most of us enjoy beautiful BC's wildlife, we don't want bears in our backyards! Both people and bears would be better off if there were fewer bears in our towns. Because bears are simply animals seeking whatever food they can find, the onus is on us to prevent conflicts. If we all took more responsibility for our garbage, tree fruit and kitchen compost the bear "problem" would largely disappear, as it has in many jurisdictions. In the last decade, thousands of black bears and hundreds of grizzlies have been killed. Millions of tax dollars have been spent addressing the issue of bears that have become conditioned to feeding on food sources we provide. Relocating bears or killing them in unprecedented numbers has not reduced the problem.
