What are bears doing way out in these flat ranchland prairie's of Montana?
The mountain areas around Glacier National Park and the Bob Marshall Wilderness is full of bears. As bear populations still continue to increase, an unintended consequence is that these flat prairie's that don't typically call bears home are beginning to fill in with grizzly bears.
SCI Foundation got on the ground with local ranchers, state biologists, and local hunting groups to better understand this situation. What we found to be most immediately impactful is finding ways to reduce Human-Bear conflicts (for the good of humans and for the good of bears).
