Grizzly 399 is off to bed

December 10, 2021  •  4 Comments

Good news from Jackson Hole: it appears that grizzly 399 and her four cubs have gone into their den for the winter!

Hopefully they'll stay safe and snug in there until the spring of 2022. 

A lot of people and organizations are working hard to try and make the valley a little safer for when they reappear out of hibernation next year.  Find my recently published article on the (human-made) dangers that face the bears here: https://www.destinationwildlife.com/blog/an-uncertain-future-for-grand-tetons-grizzlies

Fingers (and toes) crossed!

Here is grizzly 399 and her four cubs earlier this year.
