    For all of us that live in Jackson Hole this has truly scarred us emotionally. We loved her and will forever be grateful that in her own way she allowed us to join her journey. Thank you 399.

    My heart is broken at beloved 399's death and the way she died. She has absolutely touched my life. I love her and will never forget her beauty and grace and the great contribution she made of bringing and increasing the grizzly population in Wyoming where, before, there were hardly any. Rest in peace, beautiful Mama. 😢❤ We were blessed to have you. 😇

    I love bears but let's set the record straight. 399 was hit south of Jackson, not in Teton National Park. There has not been any " legal" grizzly hunting in Wyoming or Montana for over 45 years. Please, no comments from haters..these are pure facts.

      It wasn’t in the park. It was on the highway in Snake River Canyon, south of Jackson. It was at 10:30 at night. That road is very curvy, with nowhere to go if something is suddenly in the road.

    This really sad. Unfortunate, but perhaps avoidable.
    I’m not saying that whoever hit 399 was driving too fast. However when I was visiting Yellowstone National Park, I was stunned by how fast some people were driving. Especially the folks on motorcycles. Some people had to be driving 60+ mph in areas where wildlife crossing was a constant occurrence.
    Someone riding a motorcycle who hits a bison at 60mph isn’t going to survive the impact. And the bison probably won’t either.

    I don’t believe this. She made a major contribution for her kind here in the US for so long that, I don’t think any other bear after her can do the things she was able to do throughout her life. To think that it’s been some time since I heard about the passing of P-22, the mountain lion who was able to live in the heart of Hollywood, California for a decade, only to be devastated again by hearing this news now. May the Almighty Creator remember these 2 unique animals and shape the minds of those who truly care about the natural world and all of its inhabitants. 😫
