Grizzly Bear
© 1956 National Wildlife FedcrcCsn
Condensed from an article by
Rober F. Cooney.
It is difficult to believe that the
grizzly bear in the United States
is moving dangerously close to ex
tinction. Until the appearance of
white man upon the North Ameri
can Continent, this huge, self-re
liant animal had met no serious
challenge to his supremacy. Since
that time, however, a continuous
battle with guns, traps and dogs
has been waged against this silv
er-tipped monarch over much of
our western country.
Legend and fact are inseparably
intermingled in the history of this
great bear. Vague references were
made to it by the Spanish explor
ers of the southwest in the six
teenth century and Indians spoke
often of the grizzly in their leg
ends. To them the killing of this
animal was a feat of valor com
parable to that of vanquishing a
human adversary.
It was left, however, for Lewis
and Clark to bring to the world the
world the first scientific descrip
tion of the grizzly from their fam
ous exploration into the headwat

Even the earliest descriptioj
pointed out marked differences ir
-emperament and physical makeui
aetween the grizzly and blacl
sear. A somewhat concave facia
profile, long slightly curved claw:
)n the front feet, a decided humj
)ver the shoulders, together witl
the frosted appearance of the hai:
3n the back and sides, left littli
loubt in the mind of the early ex
alorer that he was in the presenci
>f a grizzly. An average weigh
if between four and six hundrei
wunds has been given but record
>f considerably larger specimen:
ire available.
During centuries of adjustmen
his bear became adapted to a vas
variety of habitats. He was fount
hroughout western North Amer
ca from Mexico to the Brook
Range of northern Alaska. Hi
iriginal homeland extended east
vard through what is now Texas
Nebraska, Kansas, the Dakotas, th
i Canadian Province of Saskatche
wan and the Territories of Mack
: enzie and the Yukon.
Since the very beginning of the
livestock industry in the West, the
grizzly has been under suspicion
' as a killer of cattle and sheep. And
although a strong defense against
. this can be made by demonstrat
, 'ng its omniverous feeding habits,
there is no doubt that meat is of
ten a staple in the diet of the
grizzly. Before the coming of the
I white man, wild game amply filled
this need. The domestic animals,
, which took the place of the buf
falo, deer and other game on much
of the grizzly range, presented a
tempting substitute for the natur
al foods. Serious predation on
livestock was probably confined,
however, to a small segment of the
; bear population. But all received
1 the blame. Livestock interests
■ throughout much of the West
' marked the grizzly as a threaten
ing hazard to their business and
carried out an active campaign of
eradication. Killing for sport may
well have played a part in this
decline in some areas.
An additional factor which is
felt to be of particular importance
today is the rapid change of the
environment in which the grizzly
lives. Wilderness-type range rep
resents the most important re
quirement of present-day grizzly
bear habitat. The rapid shrinking
and virtual disappearance of this
type of country throughout much
of the West presents the most
serious challenge that the grizzly
bear has encountered in its strug
gle for survival.
