- A grizzly bear cub does not instinctively know how to catch a salmon. Starts out slapping before it learns to pin down or scoop. Then comes practice, practice, practice.
- If it's huckleberry country, it's grizzly bear country.
- Grizzly bears love to hunt mice. They spend hours at it.
- The one thing that makes grizzly bears go into hibernation on the same day is wind-driven snow. It hides their tracks and covers their den entrances. Wildlife experts have repeatedly radio-tracked bears to their dens. That storm condition always exists.
- The body temperature of a hibernating bear is 91 degrees.
- Grizzly bears are 85% vegetarian.
- The average height and weight of a grizzly bear is about 7 feet, 700 pounds.
