COOL GRIZZLY BEAR FACTS
To Be or Not To Be: A successful grizzly bear mating doesn't always lead to a successful grizzly bear pregnancy. In a process called "delayed implantation," the fertilized embryo will stop developing after a certain point. Come fall, if the female grizzly bear has sufficient fat reserves to sustain a pregancy, the embryo will implant itself in her uterine wall and develop into a cub; if not, the embryo is reabsorbed into her system.
A Formidable Hunter: Grizzly bears are opportunistic feeders. When the opportunity strikes, they'll even prey on large mammals, such as moose, elk, mountain goats and mountain sheep — as well as their calves. They have a reputation for being lumbering, slow-moving animals, but the fact is an adult grizzly bear can keep up with a racehorse for miles.
