SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
In 2011, two fatalities were caused by
grizzly bears in Yellowstone National
Park (YNP); the first bear-caused
fatalities to occur within park
boundaries in 25 years. As a result of
these events, park managers are
reviewing the effectiveness of bear
safety messaging and its message
delivery media to backcountry visitors.
USGS social scientists and a NPS bear
management biologist will use their
combined expertise to conduct a social
survey of backcountry visitors to YNP to
help park managers achieve this review.
The survey will identify the
effectiveness of various bear safety
information and education messages;
the results will be used to direct future
bear safety information and education
efforts in YNP. No such prior analysis
has been conducted in YNP.
