The National Park Service joins our partners, community members, and friends here in Jackson Hole, and around the world, in remembering grizzly bear 399.

JACKSON — On the evening of Tuesday, October 22, 2024, grizzly bear 399 was fatally struck by a vehicle on Highway 26/89 in Snake River Canyon, south of Jackson, WY and outside of Grand Teton National Park. The bear's identity was confirmed through ear tags and a microchip.

Grizzly bear 399 had a yearling cub with her, whose whereabouts are currently unknown. At this time, there is no evidence to suggest the yearling was also involved in the incident, but the Service is monitoring the area.

Unfortunately, vehicle collisions with wildlife, including grizzly bears, are not uncommon across their range. The US Fish and Wildlife Service is working with state and local agencies to gather more information.

“People from around the world have followed grizzly bear 399 for several decades. At 28 years old, she was the oldest known reproducing female grizzly bear in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem,” said Hilary Cooley, Grizzly Bear Recovery Coordinator for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

“Wildlife vehicle collisions and conflict are unfortunate. We are thankful the driver is okay and understand the community is saddened to hear that grizzly bear 399 has died,” said Angi Bruce, Wyoming Game and Fish Department Director.

“The grizzly bear is an iconic species that helps make the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem so extraordinary. Grizzly bear 399 has been perhaps the most prominent ambassador for the species. She has inspired countless visitors into conservation stewardship around the world and will be missed,” said Grand Teton National Park Superintendent Chip Jenkins.

No additional information is available at this time.

Background information on grizzly bear/vehicle collisions from the Interagency Grizzly Bear Study Team:
- From 2009-2023, there have been 49 grizzly bear mortalities (all s*x and age classes combined) due to vehicle collisions in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.
- Average number of grizzly bear mortalities in the GYE due to vehicle collisions during 2009-2023: 3.3 bears/year.
- In 2024, including this incident, there have been 2 grizzly bear mortalities from vehicle strikes in the GYE.

While the St. Anthony Sand Dunes, grab most of the attention for this small rural town, its city parks deserve bragging rights too. The Keefer and Veteren’s Parks are so pretty and make for perfect picnics, walks, and gathering with friends and family.

Two big reasons (although one’s slightly smaller 😉) to visit Island Park.

1. Big Springs. 💦 One of the largest springs in the country, and headwaters of the Henry’s Fork of the Snake River, is home to some of finest AND biggest trout around! But leave the fishing pole behind, as fishing is not allowed here.

It’s also home to the second on the list.

2. Johnny Sack’s Cabin. 🏠 Standing at just four feet and eleven inches, Johnny Sack built this cabin (and most of what’s in it) back in 1929. Great detail went into this custom cabin and its pint sized furniture. A perfect place to rest his head after cross country skiing several miles to the post office and to visit near by friends at Mack’s Inn weekly!
