Hunter mistakenly shoots Grizzly Bear in Northern Idaho
PRIEST LAKE, Idaho — On May 9th, a hunter mistakenly shot a Grizzly Bear, initially thinking it was a Black Bear.
The hunter was in the Priest Lake drainage in northern Idaho’s panhandle region when they killed the Grizzly Bear. After identifying the bear as a Grizzly, the hunter self-reported the illegal kill to the Citizens Against Poaching hotline. They are fully cooperating with authorities.
US Fish and Wildlife proposes management changes aimed at restoring Grizzly Bear populations in Idaho
Under federal and state laws, Grizzly Bears are a protected species, and Black Bear hunters are responsible for properly identifying their target before making a kill.
All Idaho hunters with Black Bear tags are required to take a bear identification test to avoid such situations. According to Idaho Fish and Game, “Grizzlies typically have short, rounded ears, a dished facial profile, a prominent shoulder hump and 2-4 inch long claws.”
Although Grizzlies are generally considered rare in the State of Idaho, their range continues to grow across North America, and most recently, Idaho has experienced an uptick in the population of Grizzlies in portions of northern and eastern Idaho.

I remember watching a documentary about Idaho’s wildlands. A narrator said there were probably many parts of the state where no human being has ever set foot. I believe that, but I stay relatively close to the highways. If I were 30 years younger, I would probably enjoy exploring the back country, but today, unless a plane takes me in and out, it’s not happening. I can’t say definitively that there is one spot that I find better than others. We’re surrounded by beautiful terrain, however. One place keeps calling me back.
Like a Scene from a Legendary Movie
When I go over the mountain between Gooding and Fairfield, I take time to stop at the overlook above the Camas Prairie. It reminds me of a scene in Exodus, where the Paul Newman character takes an American woman to look across a flat plain leading to Mount Tabor. He explains that’s the site where Deborah gathered her armies. It makes me feel there is something godly about the Camas Prairie. I keep going back to this spot. Sometimes I take along a folding chair and sit and look at the world below.
Slow Down and See the Work of the Creator
Fairfield may be nothing more than a blip as people speed down Route 20, but it’s their loss. On the other side of the highway is some of the prettiest country in Idaho. It’s going to be a lot less lush this spring, but drought conditions haven’t been nearly as severe in the central highlands. But if I’m granted a few more years by the Almighty, I plan to see the prairie for many more springs.
