Yellowstone 1953 | Feeding Bears

Yellowstone 1953 | Feeding Bears  Yellowstone policy has changed since 1953 and now discourages people from approaching and feeding any wildlife, particularly bears. It’s better for the bears and safer for the visitors.  The bears in Yellowstone are wild and unpredictable, no matter how cute they appear.  Bears that become dependent on human food and/or become too accustomed to being around humans may become aggressive and need to be killed.  To learn more about Yellowstone in 1953, see Yellowstone 1953 | a 7 Image Story.
