Wrestling A Grizzly Bear In A Garden
Bear trainer Doug Seus is a man who thinks nothing of play wrestling a grizzly bear or posing
with his head in its mouth. For the last four decades, Doug and wife Lynne have shared their
ranch in the the Heber Valley, Utah, with their four bears.
The grizzly bear (Ursus arctos ssp.) is any North American subspecies of the brown bear,
including the mainland grizzly (Ursus arctos horribilis),
the Kodiak bear, the peninsular grizzly (U. a. gyas) and the recently extinct California grizzly (U. a. californicus†
and Mexican grizzly bear (U. a. nelsoni†). Specialists sometimes call the grizzly the North American brown bear
because the grizzly and the brown bear are one species on two continents.
In some places, the grizzly is nicknamed the silvertip bear for the silvery, grizzled sheen in its fur.
