That's a strange one, isn't it? You'd think the instructor would notice sometime like that before he even lets her in the car.

The bear, named "Willy," is a five-year-old brown bear, not a 700-pound grizzly bear as first reported by police.

A brown bear IS a grizzly bear, the brown bears on Kodiak Island are a subset of the grizzly group. (I think it's Kodiak Island where they are found).
