SEASONS Blacks bear can be found throughout the Teton/Yellowstone ecosystem. Unlike their grizzly cousins they seldom attack humans. One of their favorite foods is the wild berry crop that ripens in September. They can most often be seen on the road that runs between Moose and Teton Village at this time of year snacking on berries..
