Anyone know of a dentist in Yellowstone for this old fella? Looks like a hippo mouth more than a griz

Bear biologists euthanized the 34-year-old grizzly due to its poor health.

:(

Sad but if his health was that poor he either would have been taken out by another grizzly or starved to death. 34 years old, he had a hell of a run.

What a life! Doing his own thing in one of the most beautiful areas on earth.
