Grizzly bear approaches during blizzard.

A wildlife photographer in Canada’s Yukon Territory on Thursday shared trail-cam footage revealing what an approaching grizzly bear looks like in a blizzard.

“Although I've shared this before, I'm guessing a lot of you have never seen this awesome snow-covered grizzly after a late September snowfall in 2021,” David Troup of Yukon Wildlife Cams described via Facebook.

The footage is extraordinary in that grizzly bears hibernate during the winter, when the Yukon receives most of its snow. So it’s rare to document a grizzly at close range during a blizzard and before it has shaken off the snow.

Additionally, this occurred weeks before Troup typically collects his cameras before winter sets in, enabling his nearly 700,000 followers a unique glimpse into the life of a Yukon grizzly bear somewhat out of its element. (Click here if video player does not appear below.)

Top comment beneath Troup’s post: "I don’t know how you do it!? These amazing bears use the very trails you set up cameras [on], it makes my heart race to think how close you come as you set up or retrieve cameras. Bears, even moose are awe-inspiring but it would be heart pounding up close and personal.”
