Rare White Grizzly Bear Spotted Near Banff National Park

Grizzly bear

Polar bear?

Guess again…

There is something majestic about an all-white bear. White black bears are called “spirit bears” by some Native American people groups, and regarded as sacred. However, this is a big grizzly we’re looking at here.

And a rather well-known one.

Named Nakoda by locals, this sow was seen along a stretch of Canadian highway near Banff National Park in Alberta.

She has had her moments in the limelight a handful of times in the past few years, as her rare coat has garnered the awe of millions across the interwebs… this particular video reaching over 15 million.

Not to be confused with an albino mammal, grizzly bears actually can come in quire a variety of shades from black, to the more common brown, cinnamon, blonde and the very rare all-white.

An absolute beauty.
