*** About California Grizzly Bear: The California Grizzly Bear, scientifically known as Ursus arctos californicus, was a subspecies of the brown bear and a prominent symbol of California's wildlife. Once abundant in the region, it is now an extinct species since the early 20th century due to increasing human activity and habitat loss. Historically, this majestic animal played a central role in the folklore and identity of California, showcasing the untamed beauty and strength of the state's natural landscape. Efforts to recall and celebrate the memory of the California Grizzly include its presence on the state flag and in various forms of artistic and cultural depictions.
