What's the difference between and ABC brownbear and a Grizzly?
hi, thanks for asking!
grizzly bears are a subspecies of brown bears! kodiak bears and european brown bears are also subspecies. "brown bear" is a broader category that includes several subspecies. geographical separation and location is the largest factor in determining the differences between subspecies of brown bear.
grizzly bears are one of the largest subspecies of brown bear (kodiak bears are the largest)! they live in north america and don't typically have access to as many coastal food sources as kodiak bears do, which means that they're usually smaller in size. while kodiak bears are coastal and have access to fatty salmon, grizzly bears live inland and rely more heavily on plant life and insects that they forage.
above is a diagram that illustrates the size difference. from left to right - black bear, grizzly bear, kodiak bear, and polar bear.
grizzlies live in alpine meadows, forests, and valleys. their fur has a 'grizzled' appearance - with darker roots and lighter tips - hence their name.
The time has come to show support for the Queen of the Falls, the HBIC of Brooks River; the one and only 128 GRAZER!! Whereas her opponent started out the season pear-shaped, Grazer returned a skinny sow with two hungry 2.5 year olds in tow.
She then rose to IMMENSE FATNESS while caring for, and even nursing, her giant daughters. I mean, look at this!
She doesn’t even need to sit to look fat AF, unlike some bears.
Look at her! A true, beautiful orb of a bear!! She is at least as fat as Holly, and she did it all while looking out for her girls, not just for herself. No bear works as hard as Grazer, and no bear can boast her gains!
Today, my friends, I implore you to go to https://explore.org/fat-bear-week and VOTE GRAZER!
Voting is open until 9pm EST!
