“This time of year in particular, as the days get longer and brighter, and you get some spells of good weather, bears will start to stir a little bit, come out, maybe hang around the mouth of the den and go back in,” Van Tighem said.He said he’s heard of a case of a bear in Waterton National park not hibernating for the winter, instead tracking a wolf pack and stealing their kills for foods to make it through the winter.
“For a bear, his whole life is about food, because they’ve got to build that fat . And then when they burn it off, they’ve got to replace it,” he said.A map shows the area closed in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park following a grizzly bear encounter.“We have large bears in the Bow Valley, and usually by the end of March, they’re on the railway tracks looking for spilled grain. Mothers and cubs more commonly hang around the den and don’t emerge until mid April to late April.
