Emmett wasn't a little cub. He wasn't a yearling cub either. He was two years old. That's when grizzly bears usually leave home. Emmett was old enough to live on his own. But he didn't seem to want to. Maybe he wasn't sure what to do now that he was away from his old family and the place where he grew up. Growing Up Grizzly is a true story about a mother bear named Baylee, her three cubs, and the young bear they adopted into their family in every way. Mother grizzly bears are extremely protective of their young and generally do not tolerate outside bears. But, like people, every grizzly bear is a little different from every other one.
