If it was just a pic of the body, it could be called a griz, but the face gives it away as a black bear.

Good looking bear, too bad it's in a rug-free zone.
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

Thanks for the input! I kinda thought is was a blackie, but wasn't positive. Looks like a nice size bear. She was hoping it was a grizzly.

Very pretty bear, and good sized bear, but definitely a black bear.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

It's probably a lot more rare to get good pics of a black bear in that color phase than it is to get pics of a grizz.  She shoudl be thrilled it's a blackie!
