Just can’t stop crying over this. What a gorgeous Bear she was. Gave us all so much. Prayers for Spirit I can’t imagine how lost she must feel how horrible to see her mother killed by a humans car!!
@lancechennault1231 I graduated high school when she was born so I've been fortunate to see her entire life flourish ✨️ Hope her passing is a wake up call to local law and wildlife to create better protocols in management of grizzly in and around Jackson and the park to ensure more safe passage on public ways for our grizzlies and wildlife safely 🤙
@@cag2102 It goes a little deeper....she was famous because she was an exemplary sow and a prime specimen that wildlife biologists learned much from and her legion of fans adored. She had an unusual relationship with humans that she was able to take advantage of for the safety of her record number of offspring.
@@bigriver3278 Want to know the relationship she had that no one talks about? Probably the main reason she lived so long? I personally and hundreds of other hunters over those 28 years fed her and her cubs every single fall into December many years with elk gut piles. That is 100% fact.
Major loss for humanity! She galvanized our attention to the challenges faced by wildlife as they struggle to survive in an environment increasingly threatened by human activities.
She lived for 28 years and gave birth to 18 cubs then lost her life tragically getting hit by a car. People from all over the world got to see her in her lifetime. So sad.😢
@susancoddington6393 for 28 years, I've watched her and it's such a tragedy but one that we all feared each day with growing population of Jackson and little management for her safe travels
@@outsiderimages I’m so sorry for you because you have watched her for so many years it’s devastating to me who’s only followed her since the birth and successful emancipation of her 4 cubs. As humans we are so careless with this world that we live in we have more than enough but we always have to take more and more and give nothing back. My only consultation is she was not hunted down and shot as a trophy I always worried about that
She dedicated her life to " SHOW US ALL" What rules, laws ( not working) NEED TO BE CHSNGED, UPGRADED? SO this will never happen again? The SOLUTION IS: First CARE 2nd Speak up 3rd. Take ACTION How can we all take action together to address this and CREATE POSITIVE CHANGE, UPGRADING OLD LAWS, Speed limits in area to PROTECT INNOCENCE & their families?
Lovely tribute. I've shot hundreds of photos of her with the quads over the 2 years she raised them. My wife and I were supposed to go last month to see her with her latest cub, but life got in the way and we could not. Really sorry now we couldn't. Hope her cub will be OK. RIP 399, you truly were the queen of the Tetons.
They said they will let nature take its course. They said he should be fine. That she had taught him what he needs to know. From what I understand, they were fixing to go into hibernation and when they awoke they would part ways anyways. They do think he will find a den.
I worked in the park this past season. The cub was huge. Normally he would stay with Mom until June of next year. I am hoping if he can hibernate successfully, he might make it. His chest marking will make it easier to locate him next spring.

So sad....what a beautiful tribute you have done here. Thank you so much

@@outsiderimages She was famous because she hung out by roads. Live by the road, die by the road.
@@cag2102 yes, we know how and why she died. Doesn't make it any less tragic and unnecessary.

Beautiful!
I m very sad she gone
a beautiful tribute to
her and her cubs
R i p little angel ❤
Why this is so beautiful !! She represents endurance, tolerance, sacrifice, innocence, beauty, strength, love & hope. ❤
Absolutely devastating, the person who hit her probably was going way too fast and I hope they feel terrible!
They were not going too fast. Read the articles in the JH News and Guide. There has been an investigation. Educate yourself before you speak.
Go away 😂😂😅
Major loss for humanity! She galvanized our attention to the challenges faced by wildlife as they struggle to survive in an environment increasingly threatened by human activities.
Wonderful tribute to a very special 🐻...long live Queen of the tetons
And yet no one thought to defend her!
How sanctimonious!
Beautiful Momma Bear 399 ... RIP. What happened to her 2 yr old cub?
So very sad, whatca beautiful animal. So sad she couldn't raise possibky her final offspring to maturity. Heart broken 💔
She lived for 28 years and gave birth to 18 cubs then lost her life tragically getting hit by a car. People from all over the world got to see her in her lifetime. So sad.😢
Not an easy life so sad
Just a beautiful bear, taught humanity so much and I hope Spirit, her cub is found and will be able to survive. We're devasted of her loss
@@marcellacrane6545 we hope Spirit survives the winter and emerges out as strong as her mom 💙

Devastating.
I didnt realize they came out of hibernating so early, bless her heart and all the babies she loved
She dedicated her life to " SHOW US ALL"
What rules, laws ( not working) NEED TO BE CHSNGED, UPGRADED?
SO this will never happen again?
The SOLUTION IS:
First CARE
2nd Speak up
3rd. Take ACTION
How can we all take action together to address this and CREATE POSITIVE CHANGE, UPGRADING OLD LAWS, Speed limits in area to PROTECT INNOCENCE & their families?
Absolutely devastated! What’s just there about a month ago and all I wanted to do was see her. Unfortunately was not so lucky. RIP!

@@BigDogChannel we hope Spirit her cub can survive and create her own legacy 🙏
Are rangers looking for her cub. Or will they let nature take its course fir the cub to fend for itself ?
They said they will let nature take its course. They said he should be fine. That she had taught him what he needs to know. From what I understand, they were fixing to go into hibernation and when they awoke they would part ways anyways. They do think he will find a den.

A yearling not survive. They are usually with mom for 2 years🕊😰😪
Damn.
I want to know who killed her. Who was driving?
Why?
Human ignorance again, killed the mother!
Our duty to make sure those babies are kept safe & protected in their own home environment .
Period.
