The Grizzly bear or Ursus arctos ssp., or Ursus arctos horribilis, also known as the North American brown bear or simply grizzly, is a large population or subspecies of the brown bear inhabiting North America.

Most adult female grizzlies weigh 290–400 lb., while adult males weigh on average 400–790 lb. Average total length is 6.50 ft., with an average shoulder height of 3.35 ft. and hind foot length of 11 in. Newborn bears may weigh less than 1.1 lb.

Although variable in color from blond to nearly black, the Grizzly bear fur is typically brown with darker legs and commonly white or blond tipped fur on the flank and back. A pronounced muscular hump appears on adult grizzlies shoulders. A grizzly bear’s front claws measure about 2–4 inches in length.

There are currently about 55,000 wild grizzly bears in total located throughout North America, most of which reside in Alaska. Only about 1,500 grizzlies are left in the lower 48 states of the US. Of these, about 800 live in Montana. About 600 more live in Wyoming, in the Yellowstone-Teton area.

There are an estimated 70 to 100 grizzly bears living in northern and eastern Idaho. Its original range included much of the Great Plains and the southwestern states, but it has been extirpated in most of those areas. Combining Canada and the United States, grizzly bears inhabit approximately half the area of their historical range.

Although the once-abundant Grizzly bears appear prominently on the state flag of California. The last Grizzly in all of California was killed in the Sierra foothills east of Fresno in August 1922.

In September 2007, a hunter produced evidence of one bear in the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness ecosystem, by killing a male grizzly bear there. In the ecosystem of northern Washington, Grizzly bear populations are estimated to be fewer than 20 bears. One sighting of a Grizzly bear or Ursus arctos in 2010 has been recorded.
