Aggression attacks also occur, with grizzlies preying on other animals, including other grizzlies. In general, however, grizzlies tend to avoid such confrontations. There are some precautionary measures that can be taken to reduce the chances of an encounter with a grizzly bear. These include making noise while travelling in bear country, knowing and avoiding heavily used bear areas and knowledge of proper camp design and sanitation. More complete information on these types of details can be obtained from your local regional wildlife biologist.
Habitat management involves the identification and protection of critical habitats for grizzlies.
In some cases, it may involve recommending the preservation of undisturbed tracts of wilderness habitat. In other cases it may involve making recommendations designed to minimize the impacts of resource development on grizzlies and their habitat. This is accomplished through a system of referrals in which resource developers submit their development plans to habitat management staff for comments and recommendations. These recommendations reflect concerns for present and potential impacts on grizzly habitat. Population maintenance is based on the annual regulation of the harvest such that populations are not over harvested.
