Grizzly Mother and Cub who spent two weeks near Togwotee Pass, highway, and Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, to be safe from male bears. This is the famous bear 399 who has mothered many cubs within Grand Teton National Park. Grizzly Bears are currently an endangered species protected by the federal government; however if Wyoming has its way this bear could be hunted. Thank you to the Greater Yellowstone Coalition and NRDC for continuing the battle to keep a magnificent species safe.
Mother Grizzly Bear with Cub of the Year. Cub has natal collar
This took place 50 feet from the highway with 30 people watching. Mother was very calm.
Mother and cub even crossed the highway as 30 folks watched. I pray that this bear does not become habituated to people.
