IN MEMORIAM GRIZZLY 399

Grizzly 399 was a 28-year old female bear, beloved of many, who was one of only 12 known grizzlies in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem to reach age 28 or older. She gave birth to an amazing 18 cubs in her life. Last month she was hit by a car in Wyoming and died. Sadly, she was most likely in the road to avoid any male grizzlies who might kill and eat her cub. Her ashes have been returned to Grand Teton National Park, where she spent most of her life.
