A young female Alaskan Grizzly looking for roots and berries to eat.. This is an unusual coloration of the grizzly that I have only seen in Alaska,The Dark brown legs and cream color body. I have not seen this coloration in Montanta or Wyoming of any of the Grizzlies there.Usually they are brown,brownish black,or a lighter brown. This color reminds me of a root beer float. This was taken in Denali National Park , Alaska
