*** About Grizzly Bears: Grizzly bears, known scientifically as Ursus arctos horribilis, play a crucial role in ecosystems across North America. Characterized by their impressive size and dominant demeanor, grizzly bears are often identified by their distinct hump on their shoulders; a mass of muscles which powers their forelimbs for digging and sprinting. They are omnivorous, with diets that vary greatly depending on season and availability. In the spring, they are commonly found near rivers fishing for salmon or foraging for berries in dense forests. Educational and conservation efforts are vital for ensuring the survival of grizzly bears, who have faced threats from habitat loss and human encroachment.
