The Boss Bear’s GPS Escape
from Calgary News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Meet “The Boss,” a 700-pound grizzly bear in Banff National Park who’s turning heads — and collar-snapping them off. Parks Canada recently fitted him and two other males with GPS trackers to study movement, habitat use, and how seasons and human activity affect their survival. While “The Boss” ditched his collar in under a week (a common trick for big bears), the data is vital for updating conservation models and keeping visitors safe. No collar counts are shared yet, but temporary closures and advisories are in place. Science, safety, and wildlife protection are all on the line — and visitors are urged to check alerts before heading into the park.
