On a related note, I saw a news report a few weeks ago that there may be 3X as many grizzles in SW Alberta than previously thought. This was determined by DNA analysis of hair on scratching sites. This jibes with anecdotal evidence of hunters and hikers in the back country.

IRRC, the hunt was suspended in 2006, but there is some talk that a limited hunt in Alberta could resume.
