GRAND TETON EST.1929 TOKEN

Grand Teton National Park is home to a variety of wildlife, including black and grizzly bears. Both thrive in the various ecosystems that make up Grand Teton, and can be found in all areas of the park.

Bears are wild animals. While most will try to avoid humans, they may act aggressively when placed in different situations. Many aggressive interactions between bears and humans are caused when a bear feels they, their young, or their food source is threatened.

The best way to be safe in bear country is to come prepared. Follow our resources to learn more.

Bear Identification

Black and grizzly bears live throughout Grand Teton. Color is misleading when identifying a bear: both black and grizzly bears can range from blonde to black. Being able to properly identify a bear can help you know how to handle an encounter, should you have one.

If you see a bear, please report it to the nearest visitor center or ranger station.
