Grizzlies observed in open country west of Dutton [View all]
http://www.greatfallstribune.com/story/news/local/2016/09/16/grizzlies-observed-open-country-west-dutton/90515128/Whoa! This was apparently the first sighting in the area for a century.
Kurt Pilgeram was outside doing chores at his home five miles west of Dutton on Friday morning when he saw what he thought was a couple of guys on four-wheelers in a field to the southeast of his place.
Dutton is on Interstate 15, about 35 miles northwest of Great Falls.
When the four-wheelers began moving in single file, Pilgeram realized it was four bears — a sow grizzly and three roly-poly cubs — moving across the wheat stubble field, not four-wheelers.
“They are smaller, but they’re not small,” he said of the chubby cubs.
