Description

Unlike many mammals, bears can see with their eyes in color. They can almost see as well as we do, and they have an excellent sense of smell. The grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) is a circumpolar mammal and a subspecies of brown bear (Ursus arctos).Most bears are born without fur. Cubs can climb, but after a couple of years, their front claws grow too long (up to 4 inches), and they lose Ease of the ability, but they still can climb if needed. They can eat large quantities of food and store significant amount of fat without suffering from health problems. This uncanny ability of grizzlies to store fat content and evade heart diseases continues to baffle scientists all over the world. Bears can run up to 30 to 40 miles per hour, thats as fast as some running horses. The fastest human can run about 27 mph. A grizzly bear can smell 7 times better than a bloodhound, and said to be 100 times better than a human. Grizzly bears walk flat-footed similar to humans, but are bow-legged for stability and strength. Grizzly bears may gain as much as three pounds of weight a day as they prepare for hibernation. In the Yellowstone ecosystem, grizzly bears tend to dig or locate dens on the mid to upper one-third of 30 degrees-60 degree slopes with northern exposures between 6,562-10,006 feet in elevation. Pregnant females den at higher elevations than other females and male bears. Hibernation is varied by as much as one month depending on weather conditions. There are several different types of dens utilized by bears, Grizzly bears tend to excavate dens at the base of large trees often on densely vegetated north-facing slopes. This is advantageous in the Yellowstone ecosystem due to prevailing SW winds which accumulate snow on northerly slopes and insulate dens from temperatures which often drop as low as -40 F to -60 F.Grizzly bears in YNP usually dig new dens but on occasion, dens (especially natural cavities) are re-utilized.
