Where Now Grizzly Bear? | Hakai Magazine
A bear emerges from dense vegetation and pauses on the shore. It s early spring, and the young grizzly has only recently roused from hibernation, ravenous and driven. He lifts his head and gazes out across the falling tide to the opposite shore, where forested slopes are close enough to make out individual trees. The bear stands and sniffs the air.
We have persecuted the grizzly bear. Though to be fair, they are enormous, voracious, and as their scientific name suggests, quite horrible, and practically impossible to kill.
