TITLE

   

Baby grizzly bears of Yellowstone National Park wrestle and play while their mother eats.

Some people call the grizzly bear a brown bear. This is because the grizzly bear is actually a North American subspecies of the brown bear. Grizzly bears are found in western Canada, Alaska, Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho. The best way to tell grizzly bears from other brown bears is by their trademark silver-tipped hair.
