A grizzly bear mom takes a break from eating dandelions to play with one of her tiny cubs born earlier this year. With the grizzly bear population threatened in Alberta, it’s been great to see at least three grizzly sows in the Rockies with new cubs this year.

That is a truly wonderful sight. One I had so hoped to see while we were in Banff this June. I’m pleased they are out there for others.
It was great to see! Sorry to hear you lucked out while you were here.
We’ve failed to see any Grizzly COY this year, so this shot/news is a welcome relief (not to mention a great capture).
We’re in the Banff area at the moment – if you’re in the Rockies at all over the next few weeks, drop us a line. It would be great to connect and maybe find some bears!
Thanks Simon! Hope you’re having a great time in Banff and area and having good luck with the bear sightings. It would be great to catch up…when are you there until?
