#155 Grizzly Walking

#155 Grizzly Walking << Grizzly/Wolf Discovery Center West Yellowstone, MT >> The Grizzly/Wolf Discovery Center, is a non-profit wildlife park, open to the public. Staff members hide food in a natural looking area, and bears are allowed into the area in groups of two or three to forage. This photo was taken as one of these bears walked into the area to start looking for food. I was struck by the size of it’s claws and of the animal itself. A deck provides uncluttered viewing and photography. It appears the animals here are well cared for, with concern for their mental health as well as physical.
