There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Survival Skills of Bears

California Grizzly - 1955.
Grizzlies in more northerly parts of North America and those in the Rockies denned up and were dormant for varying periods during the winter, but those in the southern part of the original range, including California, were abroad throughout the year. According to Seton ( 1909 : 1046 ), the males were active through a longer season than females. Early newspapers contain reports of four encounters with grizzlies in each of the three winter months. Most of these were in the lowlands or warmer foothills, but two were in Shasta County during December.
There are several reports of grizzlies active at higher elevations of the Sierra Nevada in winter. A bear was abroad at Leek Springs, El Dorado County, during the winter of 1851 when the snow was 8 feet deep and frozen on the surface ( N 19 ). Grizzly Adams caught or killed bears in the snow season in the central Sierra Nevada ( probably at 4,000 to 5,000 feet elevation )-some when they were abroad, others in their dens. A man was killed by a grizzly during December, 1874, in Sierra Valley, four miles west of Sierraville, while snow lay on the ground ( N 85 ).
