The grizzly bear has a diverse diet; it feeds on small mammals, fish, calves of many hoofed animals, berries, plant roots and shoots. Sometimes, it would also eat birds and bird eggs. In addition to these, it occasionally feeds on carrion as well.
The grizzly bear is an awe-inspiring solitary animal found in western North America. Its fur is usually brown with a tinge of white at the tips. Grizzly bears usually gather near fishing spots when the salmon run upstream for summer spawning. They hog on as many fish as they can, hoping to store all the fat needed to survive the harsh winter climate.
Grizzly bears are overprotective mothers; they would not hesitate to attack anybody who comes between the mother and her cubs.
Despite their fierce nature, human settlements and aggressive hunting eliminated most of the grizzly bear populations. Though conservation measures have helped increase the numbers, the species remains endangered today.
