GRIZZLY ]!Iv\R 



The great size and the immense claws arc 

 the chief characteristics of the grizzly's track. 

 All five toes usually show in each track. "The 

 strongest and most distinctive characteristic of 

 the grizzlies is the long, proportionately slender 

 and slightly curved claws of the front feet, 

 sometimes more than three inches long" (sec 

 pages 440 and 442)

The plantigrade foot is clearly shown in the 

 hear track. That of a black bear differs from 

 that of a grizzly, first in size, second in the 

 shortness of the claws. Usually no claws 

 show, and the fifth toe, which is well devel- 

 oped on both front and hind paws, leaves little 

 sign and often none at all. Frequently the 

 hind foot is set on the track of the front foot 

 in correct register.
