kind of strong large brown bear. When a grizzly grows up, it may become as heavy as 680 kg.
But never think this gigantic animal moves slowly. In fact, the grizzly can run as fast as 55 km
an hour.
Though grizzlies look quite big and dangerous, they eat not only meat, but also flowers
and grasses. Fish is their favorite food. On summer nights, they enjoy catching fish in the
rivers. That is why people usually come watching grizzlies in this season.
Now the number of grizzlies is getting smaller because they have been killed by people
who sell grizzly body parts as medicine. Many people of our town are worried about this and
have asked for help to save our big friends.
