I hit a deer on the interstate once. Demolished the whole front of the car............
Question for those who may know. In the midwest if you hit a deer you can ask for a tag from the responding officer and keep the carcass.
Is the same true if you hit a bear?
Like hitting a 200+ pound wild boar/pig, it will total a car.
Beloved? Did the bear show up and let kids pet him?
A great loss to the Yellowstone petting zoo.
This brings to mind an episode of “Newhart” involving a beloved “Great White Buck. According to local folklore, a rare sighting of “the Great White Buck’ meant the town would experience good fortune in the coming year. The townspeople were celebrating one of these rare sightings, but their joy was short-lived when Bob Newhart ran over him.

Give the grizzlies their own road crossing path, like the deer have. (LOL.)

What would Brian Boitano do?
When Brian Boitano was in the Alps
Fighting grizzly bears
He used his magical fire breath
And saved the maidens fair
Sorry to hear this.
Reminds me of the mountain lions that are routinely killed on So Cal’s freeways, very sad since there are so few of them left.
A new “animal bridge” is being built over the 101 freeway to try to prevent this and also to help with inbreeding issues since the freeway bottled up the lion population on either side.
There’s nothing beloved about an animal whose basic instinct is to kill you by eating you alive.
A few years back Yellowstone let some idiot live with grizzlies. And he got eaten.
There is no such thing as a “Gentle Ben”.
I don’t feel any worse about this incident than I would a story of someone running over a coyote or a badger.
I can’t imagine the damage caused by smacking a Grizzly at speed.
I have seen what big alligators can do to the undercarriages of cars in Florida and it’s mechanically catastrophic
Grizzlies are misunderstood. Only about 5% want to eat you. Just ask Timothy Treadmill!
