They really aren"t a problem in our part of the valley. I"ve been here for 12 years and have had one on the place that I know of and have seen their scat under numerous apple trees. Most of the region to the east of our place is closed to human entry from July 1 to November 1 to preclude problems. There is a place about a 2 miles N of our place that is closed in the fall when numerous bears come down into an old apple orchard. My old neighbor lived here all is life and while they saw griz on their place he said they never ever lost a calf or had any damage from them save digging up a buried yearling steer occasionally. North of us in the Ronan area they have a real problem with folks raising chickens. The bears come in and they have no deterrent (hot wire enclosures) and they complain when grizzlies eat their chickens. Elsewhere in the state there are regular griz encounters and some of them are fatal. In the Seeley -Swan area, people tell me if you shoot a deer or an elk you have about an hour to get it cleaned and out because the griz associate a gunshot with at least a gut pile and a hunter was killed there awhile back defending his elk from a griz. Griz are very numerous in MT and they are even going back out on the plains (where the evolved) due their increasing numbers. There are more bear/people encounters every year around the state and I said previously many of them do not go well for humans. I believe they should and will soon be delisted and managed here.
