U.S. grizzly bear populations this year have reached their highest levels in decades, but some experts say the comeback could be bad news for bears and for humans.
At least 603 grizzlies now roam the greater Yellowstone region, more than three times the number in 1975, when grizzlies were added to the endangered species list. The number of bear attack on humans has also increased and the problem may be partly tied to climate change. Milder winters have helped bark beetles obliterate white-bark pine, whose nuts are an important food source for grizzlies.
So rather than eat nuts, berries and other plant-based foods, grizzlies are now focusing more on meat including human beings.
