       Seeing an animal we believe to be nocturnal during the day can
       throw us for a loop. It may seem like such animals never leave
       their dens during the day – but the reality is different.

       Brown bears, commonly called grizzlies, have long evoked
       fascination. These intelligent mammals display dynamic behaviors
       that inspire onlookers with a myriad of questions. At some
       point, one may wonder which is the correct term for Ursus
       arctos—grizzly or brown bear?

       The difference is regional: bears found inland are referred to
       as grizzlies, while those on the coasts are known as brown
       bears. Grizzlies are actually a subspecies of brown bear, Ursus
       arctos horribilis, found in dense forests, alpine meadows and
       mountain valleys. The principal distinctions of the grizzly are
       its physical appearance and diet. It takes its name from the
       ‘grizzled’ blonde-tipped fur that grows along its shoulders and
       back. Inhabiting interior areas such as Yellowstone or Denali,
       grizzlies forage for plants such as grasses, glacier lilies,
       whitebark pinenuts, biscuit root, horsetail, false truffles,
       clover, dandelions, spring-beauty and globe huckleberries. They
       fish cutthroat trout from streams and eat worms, moths and ants.
       They also scavenge the carcasses of wolf kills and prey upon elk
       calves and the occasional bison.

       Meanwhile, coastal brown bears have a fatty, salmon-rich diet,
       which is why those found along the Alaska Peninsula are the
       largest in the world. While all brown bears are resourceful,
       opportunistic feeders, vegetation play a much smaller role in
       the feeding habits of bears living along the shoreline. They
       will, however, supplement their diet with razor, butter and
       steamer clams they dig up on the tidal flats, as well as sedges,
       flowers, roots and berries.

       [center]© Brad Josephs[/center]
       Because a large bulk of their diet is vegetarian, grizzlies tend
       to be smaller than their relatives on the coast, who feast on
       the bounty of salmon runs. Brown bears on the shores of Alaska
       can reach massive proportions, weighing up to 1,650 pounds and
       standing 9 feet tall on hind feet. Bears that lack these marine
       reserves weigh far less, typically between 200 and 700 pounds.
       In addition to variations in size, it has been suggested that
       there are temperamental differences. Due to competition over a
       less abundant food supply and the need for a more extensive home
       range, inland grizzlies seem to react more aggressively to other
       bears and humans.

       Animals shock us with the most bizarre appearances - some even
       look like they've been dressing up. But the weird and wonderful
       shapes and colours of nature are vital to the animals' lives.
       Sometimes they're disguised to help blend in, other times they
       are designed to stand out and show off. But whether it's a
       monkey in make-up or a salamander's toxic stripes, the weird and
       wonderful outfits enable the creature to thrive.
       The obvious place to start exploring animal outfits is the
       colourful parrots. The birds dazzling hues are not all caused by
       pigment, but more a clever reflection of the light. Bright,
       vibrant plumage is very attractive to a bird of the opposite sex
       - it demonstrates that the wearer is in good health, but
       surprisingly the main function of their bold markings is
       camouflage. [img

       There is an alternative to blending in. Some animals use
       colourful costumes to make themselves stand out. In the case of
       bold and bright tree frogs and salamanders, it's to warn would
       be attackers of toxins in their skins.
       Intimidation can also be used in the mating game, when a male
       wants to make himself bigger and more intimidating to his
       competitors. Many birds flaunt elaborate plumage to make
       themselves look more dramatic. The king of courting costume
       though is the peacock. With a two metre tail span, covered in
       colourful, eyelike markings, he's hard to ignore. But while some
       creature costumes are easy to explain, others remain a mystery.
       Animals dressing up might seem colourful to us, but perhaps it's
       not so strange - there is no species that enjoys putting on a
       costume as much as we do! [img

       This male American woodcock has some glide in his stride and
       some dip in his hip. Here he is performing an early morning "sky
       dance" to woo the woodcock ladies in springtime at Moosehorn
       National Wildlife Refuge in Maine.
