Spring is just around the corner, and in Yellowstone National Park that means it’s time for grizzly bears to start waking up.
If the past few years are an indication, the first grizzly bear sighting of 2022 could occur any day, despite cold temperatures in the park.
In 2019, the first known sighting occurred March 8. The bear was spotted between Canyon Village and the Fishing Bridge. Paw prints from another grizzly bear were discovered days later between Mammoth Hot Springs and Norris Junction.
