How long until Big Horns full of Griz?

elks96 · Jul 4, 2023

Saw a face book post tonight where a person took photos of 2 sows with cub 10 miles out of Buffalo coming from Ten Sleep.

Pic was not the best but it sure looked like 2 grizz shape wise…

I searched on line and it seems the game and fish has been pretty vocal about no bears in the Big Horns Yet…

I've heard reports of a few game camera pics too. But no proof yet!

Seen them in Byron a mamma and 2 cubs. Killing livestock got attention quick.

Bighorns is to crowded. They will be shot quickly

There was a confirmed grizzly near Gebo between Worland and Thermopolis earlier this spring. Video was on Facebook.
I don’t know about full of grizz but it seems inevitable that one or some will get to the bighorns.

I think WY G+F only confirms it if they set up residence & unsure what their criteria is for that.

elks:

Can you post the Facebook link or some way where we all can see those photos?

Thanks,

What does 10 miles outside of Buffalo coming from ten sleep mean? They're on opposite sides of the mtn

I’m assuming it might have been easier to say 10 miles west of Buffalo

I e told my boys, 17 and 12 that they will see grizzlies in the Uintas in Utah.

Never thought I'd see wolves. I feel pretty sure I'm correct

Saw this the other day. A bear just has to cross a little Prarie to get to the pryors. Griz are seen all the time in Clark. Not that far for animal to travel.

Just reading that today. It was posted on FB and everyone under the sun was claiming they'd been there for years. Many claiming the forest service has been dumping problem bears up there on the rez and the Crow have been killing them. Probably need to take that last part with a block of salt.....

Yeah, mainly because the Forest Service does not move bears.
