There has been recent debate whether the Yellowstone grizzly bear should be removed from the endangered species list. These creatures were listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act in 1975, when only about 100 to 200 of them existed in the park's area.
While their numbers have slowly increased over the past 35 years (to about 700 bears today), the grizzly bear is still at risk with slow reproduction rates and declining food sources. If these bears are delisted, hunting of these large mammals will surely return.
