Grizzly bear 863, a sow known as "Felicia" in wildlife watching circles, crosses U.S. Highway 26/287 on May 7, 2020, east of Moran, Wyoming. Rangers equipped with rubber bullets, beanbags, paintballs and noisemakers recently descended upon a popular grizzly's favorite roadside hangout and created an uproar. The action, intended to keep the bear and the public safe, sparked criticism from wildlife advocates, particularly after officials raised the possibility of euthanizing the bear if hazing did not work.
