Summary:
Coola and Grinder are two adult grizzly bears living at the "peak of Vancouver" on Grouse Mountain. For the past eighteen years they have been among the mountain's biggest attractions. People from all over the world flock to see these magnificent creatures, who live in a five-acre wildlife refuge that simulates a grizzly bear's natural habitat. Contrary to popular belief, the bears are not brothers; they were brought to the mountain as orphaned cubs born on opposite sides of the province-- Coola hails from Bella Coola, and Grinder (named after the Grouse Grind hiking trail) was born near Invermere. The Grizzlies of Grouse Mountain tells the tale of Coola and Grinder's life on the mountain, their distinct personalities, and their important role in teaching wildlife rangers and scientists about grizzly bear behaviour. Written for young school-age children, this book presents facts and anecdotes about the bears, and imparts valuable lessons about the importance of wildlife conservation.
