Bears Emerge In Grand Teton National Park

Grand Teton National Park said Wednesday that bear tracks have been spotted. The announcement alerts local residents and park visitors to exercise caution throughout the park. The Jackson Hole Valley park warns that bears may soon visit the Flagg Ranch, Colter Bay, Beaver Creek and Kelly areas of Wyoming. A spokeswoman for the park says the timing is on par with normal bear trends. She advises local residents and park visitors to begin carrying bear spray and looking out for bear tracks. On average, male grizzly bears are out of hibernation by March 15. They are followed by female bears in late March to mid-April.
