Description
Leading the Way - Grizzly 399 with Three of Four Cubs
The first two days in the Tetons, I felt like I was one step behind this remarkable and intelligent bear. She is famous worldwide due to frequent sightings and the fact that she has had so many offspring. She is 24 years old (born 1996), rather old for a mother, and everyone was surprised when she emerged from her den with four cubs, a rare event. Grizzlies were removed from the endangered species act in 2017 despite the majority of 650,000 comments asking that they remain on it. So these magnificent creatures are now at the mercy of individual states and trophy hunters. 399 is a bear who often dens outside the national park and certain hunters have targeted 399 because of her fame. Please urge your representatives to reinstate protection for these bears. (Note: just recently protection for the bears in and around Yellowstone, including Grand Tetons was reinstated!) Even inside a national park setting, many bears are killed each year due to car accidents, and outside the park, bears are also killed by trains and cars.

Nature, animals, beauty have been a source of nourishment throughout my life. Photography allows me to capture, interpret, and share that world of wonder I see about me, and sometimes use what I capture as an inspiration to create something new by incorporating other exposures, textures or brushwork.
