13 grizzly bears gather in Montana foothills

13 grizzly bears gather at Montana ranch

GREAT FALLS, Mont. -- Maybe it was a family reunion. Montana wildlife officials spotted 13 grizzly bears together on a private ranch southwest of Dupuyer, Montana. Fish, Wildlife and Parks grizzly-bear management specialist Mike Madel said it seemed like a gathering of females and young who were related or familiar with each other. Madel was tracking radio-collared grizzly bears in October when he spotted and photographed the group.
