  • Two Grizzly Bear Studies : Moth Feeding Ecology and Male
    Two grizzly bear studies : moth feeding ecology and male reproductive biology by Donnell Dee White, Jr A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biological Sciences Montana State University © Copyright by Donnell Dee White, Jr (1996) Abstract: ABSTRACT Grizzly bears (Ursus arctos horribilis) consume adult army cutworm moths (Euxoa auxiliaris) from late June through mid-September on high elevation talus slopes in Glacier National Park (GNP), Montana. To better understand the importance of cutworm moths to grizzly bears in GNP, I identified the sex and age classes and minimum number of grizzly bears foraging at moth aggregation study sites, documented the timing and use patterns of grizzly bears foraging in these areas, quantified the effects of mountain climber presence on the behavior of foraging grizzly bears, determined temporal abundance patterns of moths at aggregation study sites throughout the summer, and determined body mass, total body moisture, total lipid, gross energy, and total nitrogen of moths collected throughout the summer. A minimum of 36 grizzly bears were observed 106 times feeding at 6 of 9 known army cutworm moth aggregation sites in GNP, from late-June through mid-September, 1992-1995. No bears were observed on moth sites in 1993. Bears fed on moth aggregations disproportionately more at elevations >2561 m, on slopes between 31 -45°, and on southwest-facing aspects. Lone adult and subadult grizzly bears appear to be underrepresented and overrepresented at the sites, respectively. Seasonal body weight and seasonal whole-body percentages of total moisture, total nitrogen, total lipid, and gross energy, varied linearly as a function of time.
