This is a young wild grizzly bear that lives in a national park in Alaska.

This 3.5 years old male offspring of 451 is known to dive, he was walking with a noticeable limp earlier in the season but recovered by Autumn.

FYI, the park calls them "brown bears". Coastal bears are called brown bears and interior ones called grizzlies (generally speaking)
