California Considers Grizzly Reintroduction Plan That Could Use Wyoming Bears
Cowboy State Daily ^ | 12 March 2026 | Mark Heinz

"For decades, reintroducing grizzlies to California seemed unrealistic. Now, California lawmakers are considering a plan that could relocate Yellowstone grizzlies there. One skeptic says, "I don’t think it’s feasible. There’s 40 million people in California."

I hear Mr Drysdale needs a new bear. One that’s sober.

I’ve never seen a 600 pounder but I don’t doubt that they exist.

A 400 pounder traversed the back of my house early one spring, in the wee hours of the morning.

And, that was before it had fattened-up following hibernation.

It’s been exceptionally warm here in California and it’s not even officially spring.

I was thinking along the lines of Vellaoso Raptor. Just like in Jurassic Park.

“I knew that it would only be a matter of time before some well-intentioned retard would entertain such an idea!”

I was hoping they would re-introduce them to Central Park in NYC. That way the liberals could enjoy them up close, as long as they were unarmed.

Perhaps with the bears in place they’ll remove all the scrub brush to protect the bears from wild fires (sarc)

I’m waiting for these pin heads to make a Wolf-Grizzly hybrid to “re-introduce”. May as well go for broke since they want to replace humans with apex predators.

Two birds with one stone. May as well throw in a little mountain lion too...

Why do you think that was a serious proposal?

They already brought 3 of those back. 20% larger than Canadian timberwolves.

If they are going to do it, do it where the most California voters that want this can enjoy them. Re-introduce them in LA,. San Francisco and Sacramento.

Because of what I've learned from what I do.
