silvertip
Frosted-fur bruin type
Silvertip is a common name for the grizzly bear, from the silver-frosted appearance of its fur.
The term also applies to certain fishing flies tied with silver-tipped badger hair, and to varieties of fish—particularly sharks—with pale fin markings.
We spotted a silvertip foraging near the riverbank.
