Officials at Yellowstone National Park haven’t had to kill a grizzly bear inside the park since 2017.⁠ ⁠ That changed Wednesday, when they trapped and euthanized a 400-pound grizzly that had become food-conditioned and was a risk to public safety. In a press release, NPS officials explained that the 11-year-old male bear had become notorious for seeking out human food by flipping over dumpsters and uprooting trash cans. They say this happened multiple times this spring at several sites, including the park’s most well-known location, Old Faithful.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in profile for the full story 🔗⁠ ⁠ #grizzly #grizzlybear #bear #bears #grizzlybears #yellowstone #yellowstonenationalpark #outdoors #wildlife #conservation⁠ 📷: nationalparkservice⁠ Story by: krismillgate
