- "The North American Brown Bear, most commonly known as the Grizzly Bear, is a massive brown bear that can be found in mainland regions in the northern reaches of America and Canada. The Alaskan grizzly bear is the largest of its type, weighing up to 680.00 kg thanks to a rich diet and plentiful hunting and feeding opportunities. They have keen senses overall and are curious animals, always on the lookout for their next meal, which they can hunt, kill and steal on their own. Grizzlies can be found near bodies of flowing water, where they find their most abundant food sources. Hunting a grizzly is the challenge of a lifetime, and without the right equipment, skill and patience, might even be your last."

Trivia[]
- While the Old English word "Grislic" (meaning "to fear") seems a tempting choice for the Grizzly Bear's namesake, their name actually descends from the Anglo-French word "Gris" meaning "gray". (Cut the bear some slack. It's already called "horribilis")[1]
- They are the official state mammal of Montana and the official state animal of California.
- In Alaska, there is a specific distinction between "Grizzlies" and "Brown Bears", which refers to the same species in this context. Bears that live on the coast are called "Brown Bears" and bears that live inland are called Grizzly Bears.
- It is one of 3 species of Bear huntable in game. The others are the Black Bear, and the Eurasian Brown Bear.
