Difficult Year for Grizzly 1063 in Grand Teton

Grizzly 1063, the daughter of Blondie (Grizzly 793), lives in Grand Teton is also known as “Fritter” or “Bonita.” She had a difficult year in 2025 after emerging from hibernation with her three 1-year cubs. She emerged in 2024 with her first set of cubs. Unfortunately, she lost two of her grizzly cubs to a male boar grizzly in June 2025. Her third cub named “Miracle” after surviving the male boar remains on its own still this fall, surviving without 1063 all summer. Grizzlies usually don’t separate from their cubs until they are two years old.

This video shows Grizzly 1063 roaming through Sage brush in Grand Teton in early September, still separated from her surviving Grizzly cub “Miracle”. Grizzly 1063 looks healthy as she searches for berries in the Sage brush. May they her and “Miracle” remain safe and emerge next spring.
