    @ 4:15 = that is fantastic = I initially thought, "She's not looking to good" then looked at the whole scene and came to the conclusion it was early Spring and she may have just been coming out of hibernation; hence the look = coat and slimness. Then you put up the note about not worrying too much about her appearance. That was excellent. Thank you it was a relief to read.

    • @C10sRule
      @C10sRule 3 роки тому +1

      In Banff, they don’t get to 1,000 lbs. some Coastal grizzlies may, not likely for a coastal female. The biggest brown bears are further North, like Kodak Alaska where they are called brown bears. They are still actually blonde to black. That area has the genes and food stocks to allow them to grow that large. Northern Russia and some of Northern Europe is similar.
      This bear might be 450 lbs (ish?) and he grand daughter/daughter was a very fat female in the video!!! She is doing well. She may be 500 lbs, but usually only a boar gets that big here. There was a 10 year old garbage bear from decades ago that had mauled a few people and subsequently hunted and killed (sometimes this is really justifiable). He was exceptionally huge for the region at 761 lbs. He was a nuisance bear in the days when garbage was not kept so secure as it is today and had become human habituated , generally a death sentence for a grizzly bear. Black bears are somewhat different in the same conditions. I read about him in a book called Bear Attacks, by Stephen Herrero. An exceptional read. You are entertained in a way that also teaches you sooo much about Grizzly and Black bears. This bear that grew so large so fast attacked an escaped convict even. Random coincidental karma there!!! Haha.

      @wasidanatsali6374 3 роки тому

      There are exceptions but it’s illegal to dog bears in most US states. Also baiting of any game animal is prohibited on US federal land and most state and/or public land.
      Just saying that so people don’t think bears are baited and dogged all over the US.
      In Canada baiting of bears is routinely the way bears are hunted. I’m a hunter as well and I couldn’t be proud of killing a beast that had its head stuck in a bait barrel. However, there are some good arguments for baiting bear like it allows the hunter to judge the bear’s size, sex, and if a sow has cubs. It also probably facilitates a hunter getting a cleaner shot on a bear.

      She only had a collar on for a short period before she got it off. Because she was so elusive and stayed remote during the daylight, her cub history is vague. Her last cub was when she was around twenty or so, but it didn't survive. She may be the mother to some of the prominant females in the area though.

      She was a remarkable bear. Was around people as much as the other bears but only from 11pm to 5:30am, than she'd sneak off, always there but never seen. Staff would work years, some their whole careers without seeing her unless during a capture. I studied her GPS to establish routines and that's how I got to see her the first few times. During my time, I saw her around 15 times, each time was special.

      @TheBearGuyCanada  3 роки тому +3

      It takes them usually to 7-10 years old to fully fill out and be at their healthiest, this is when they start having cubs. At this stage they would range between 350-425 pounds prior to den and to do so in good to great condition for having cubs. She was structurally a big female, and she was in a location she was able to access several roadkill carcasses a season, she would push 400 pounds at den. Once they get into their twenties they struggle to hit that optimum weight, sometimes due to competition, tooth wear and decay, and overall health. Her location, and ability to share with another female on the carcasses, (possible daughter of grand daughter), kept her on the landscape to almost thirty. She had an amazing life for a bear.

      Wild bears live barely into their twenties, the females a year or two longer than the males. Bears in captivity routinely live to their late twenties, and sometimes into their thirties.
      Some bears have incredibly long lives. On July 20, 2020, Grizzly 168, a 34 year old male bear was euthanized for killing cattle. He had hardly any teeth left, so he must have done it through the great strength of his limbs.
      Ginger, a female, died in the Columbus, Ohio Zoo. She was 40 years old, a most beloved resident of the facility. Brownie, another grizzly in captivity, was estimated to be at least 56 when he died.

      She was so elusive and only came out in high vis areas at night and stayed in cover during the day, she never got reports. You have to rely on wildlife cams on rub trees or at carcass dump locations. She has her regular stomping grounds and there were no images of her in 2020 from what I know.

      @@aslmad1 , I would think so, anytime a bear in the wild gets past 25 is great. She not only did that but looked good in the process. Pushing thirty, that's a remarkable life for her, she was like a ghost when she was alive, so it's only fitting we don't actually know, but I'd say yes.

      Depending on areas, different agencies, the numbers don't always coincide. Banff and Kananaskis kept track of the bears they caught and tagged under one order, whereas Fish and Wildlife in the rest of Alberta had their own system. Many people automatically think the lower the number the older the bear, and it just indicates the amount of bears processed. If they tag anymore this season, the next bear will be gb#171 or gb# 172
