Banff National Park of Canada
November 20, 2009We’re Still Around!Winter may be just around the corner, but bears are still active in the park. Some bears, especially females with young cubs, may already be snug in their winter dens, but others, like adult males, are still out and about in search of food. At this time of year, bears will take advantage of grain spilled on railway tracks, elk weakened by the recent rut, or carcasses. If you see ravens, do not approach, as this could indicate a carcass is nearby. If you see a bear, or think there may be a carcass in the vicinity, please call the Banff Warden Office at 403.762.1470. The following group access and area restrictions are no longer in effect for this year:Banff National Park Group Access - Aylmer Pass Trail Group Access - Moraine Lake Area Trails Restricted Access - Allenby Pass Did you know… the trail conditions report gives current wildlife related warnings and closures. Check it out before you head out!
