Best time to go grizzly bear watching in Canada
The autumn months, which start around late August in Canada are one of the best times to go grizzly bear watching, however, as it is the beginning of the salmon migratory season as they head upstream from coastal estuaries to spawn. And, consequently, out come the bears in their droves, during September, October and sometimes as late as November to catch them and feast before they go into hibernation. This is one of nature’s most exciting sights to behold. And exhausting, because they then go into hibernation during December, January, February and March.

Brown or Black bears?
Bear safety
And the big question on most people’s lips – do you run away or keep still if you see a bear when you aren’t expecting it? There isn’t a strict rule of thumb but in general, with black bears you stand strong, wave your arms around, make noise and show them that you are bigger than them. With a grizzly you do the opposite, staying very still and calm, and backing away very slowly. Especially if you see they have a cub with them. So, don’t provoke and just retreat is the best advice with grizzlies. And worst case scenario, if they contact you, turn on your stomach, curl up and act dead. We left that happy note until the end. But remember, attacks are rare, and when you are on a guided wildlife watching holiday, you are with experts who really know their stuff.
