HAPPY CANADA DAY!

Grizzly Bears (Female, Cubs & Male) - 5 Photos

(Kananaskis, Alberta, CA)

NOTE:  ALL PHOTOGRAPHS WERE TAKEN FROM A SAFE LOCATION & DISTANCE.

Today is Canada's Birthday and as part of the festivities, let's remember to celebrate our Grizzly Bears and how truly lucky we are to have them in our natural world. They are some of the greatest ambassadors for Canada and hopefully demonstrate to the world how important Nature is to each of us. To reiterate the quotation from Gary Synder, that appears on the Home Page of my website, "Nature is not a place to visit. It is home". Let's continue to keep these bears and their habitat protected.
