Grizzlies

Latin name is ursus arctus horribilis
Named for the way the tip of their fur turns silvery as they age
They are omnivorous (eat both meat and plants)
60-90% of their diet consists of grass, roots, berries, tubers and insects

Males weigh between 325-1500 lbs.
(That's 147-590 kilograms!)
Females weigh between 150-800 lbs.
(68-363 kilograms)
Cubs weigh only 1 lb (.45 kg) when born,
but gain weight quickly

They can live up to 30 years in the wild
There are between 10,000 to 13,000 grizzlies in BC alone. (In some US States they are considered threatened and in Eastern Europe they are ranked as endangered)

The largest threat to Grizzlies is loss of habitat and illegal hunting.

They can run up to 30 mph (54 kmh) in short bursts
70% of all human deaths from Grizzly attacks happen when a mother is protecting her cub.
Grizzlies stand on their hind legs when they are curious or if they want a better view of something

========================================================

Sheesh - Mama bears weigh that much and have a 1lb. child - -
how fair is it ours on small frames are humongous by comparison?!!

Neither do they have to carry it a whole year before it walks!
