With females averaging 125 to 175 kilograms and males 250 to 350 kilograms, Ursus arctos is the second largest land-based carnivore in North America after its cousin, the polar bear. Despite its fearsome reputation, hugely-muscled body, large concave face, extremely long fore-claws, and massive size, the grizzly's bulk comes largely from berries and other vegetation. While it preys on young deer, moose, elk, and caribou in springtime, will occasionally hunt adult ruminants year round, and consumes vast quantities of salmon and other fish when they are available, vegetation makes up as much as 90% of the grizzly's diet. The grizzly is an apex predator with no natural enemies except when young. Although they are greatly feared by people, grizzlies avoid human contact. The Canadian range of grizzly bear once extended as far east as Manitoba, but today it is found only in British Columbia, Alberta, the Northwest Territories, and Yukon.
