Scientists generally do not use the name grizzly bear but call it the North American brown bear. https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/164049173 2017-03-31 18:40:15 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/164049173 Brown bears are brown, right? Well, maybe! They come in all sizes and shades, from a light cream color to almost black. Grizzly bears are a type of brown bear, but not all brown bears are grizzlies! Grizzly bears get their name because their fur is brownish next to the skin, but tipped with white or tan. nicholas_patterson11 https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/164052217 2017-03-31 18:54:03 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/164052217 Brown bears can spend four to six months a year curled deep in sleep nicholas_patterson11 https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/164053498 2017-03-31 19:00:17 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/164053498 Eating fruit helps make these bears important to the forest ecology. The fruit seeds they swallow end up in the bears’ droppings, sprout, and grow into new trees. As a bear moves from place to place, it helps the forest grow. https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/164379977 2017-04-03 15:40:01 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/164379977 Male grizzly bears have large territories, up to 4,000 km2 (1,500 sq mi),[47] making finding a female scent difficult in such low population densities. Population fragmentation of grizzlies may destabilize the population from inbreeding depression. https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/164664837 2017-04-04 16:28:09 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/164664837 grizzly bears can be seen at prime Alaskan fishing spots nicholas_patterson11 https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/165718691 2017-04-10 16:29:24 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/165718691 live https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/166157889 sometimes they live in the forest & caves ]]> 2017-04-12 19:28:47 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholas_patterson11/h09gllhy5xav/wish/166157889
