| At Grizzly Bear Feeding Grounds near Canyon Hotel (White Specs are Gulls) 7:30PM July 30 - 1941 |
| For much of Yellowstone's history, garbage from park hotels was regularly fed to bears in front of seated audiences like this one. In the 1930s, research of Adolph Murie and others pointed to the benefits of noninterference with Yellowstone's ecological system. According to Aubrey Haines, the public spectacle of feeding hotel garbage to bears at Canyon was discontinued in 1941, the same year this photograph was taken. |
