Some stories are historical, such as Roosevelt's hunting, Pike's exploring, and the death of Colorado's last grizzly. Other tales are contemporarybackyard bruins in the suburbs, close encounters in the wilderness, and dedicated wildlife scientists who crawl deep inside dens with the bears. These stories involve hikers, ranchers, hunters, historians, Native Americans, and regular folksat the moments their lives have intersected with the great bruins of Colorado.
