Did You Know? Grizzly Bear Denning Instincts
Full Video HERE (NLWS Youtube Channel)
Grizzly bears possess a remarkable innate ability to dig dens for winter hibernation. These powerful creatures use their strong forelimbs and sharp claws to excavate dens on north-facing slopes, which offer the most stable snow conditions, providing insulation and protection throughout the winter. This instinctual behavior is crucial for their survival, allowing grizzlies to give birth during hibernation and emerge in spring with their cubs. Rewilding efforts focus on preserving these natural habitats to ensure grizzlies can continue this essential life cycle in the wild.
