Grizzly On Alert Tank Top

How to tell a grizzly or brown bear from a black bear:
1) Even though a grizzly is called a brown bear it can be anywhere from blond to nearly black. They typically have fur brown with darker legs and commonly white or blond tipped fur on their back. Mostly black bears are black.
2) A grizzly will have a pronounced hump on their shoulders and a black bears will not have this hump.
3) The face of a grizzly bear has a sloped face with short, rounded ears. The black bear has a straight face and longer ears.
4) A grizzly bear's front claws measure about 2-4 inches in length and a black bear's measure about 1-2 inches in length. This example I never want to measure on my own.
5) Lastly the grizzly bear is enormous. Again never want to measure this one either.

It is an incredibly beautiful world out there. Our goal is to try to capture some of it in our images. Living in the beautiful Pacific Northwest we never lack for places to shoot. But never pass up the chance to visit all the many other beautiful places this world has to offer. Along with all the wonderful creatures, large and small. We have also been blessed with many wonderful photographic adventures to some awesome places which we are happy to share with you. If you see any photo on our website or my Facebook page that isn't in our galleries that you would like see here please send me a private message by clicking the link above. I will always try to make all of my images available. Dotty of WesDotPhotography
