Mckate's ID Tips: This sub is a miniature of her mother (speculated to be 505). She has a blonde to light brown coat with lighter ears. She has a dark tapered muzzle and a round face. Her claws also appear to be dark with tan colored tips like her mom's.

Distinctive Behaviors:[]
Mckate's Notes: In 2021 146 spent part of July and August at the falls dodging her mom and braving the crowd on the lip. Even though she was by far the smallest lip fisher, she found more than a little success in that spot. She also made a catch or two on the sidelines of the J.

Why 146 Does Not Have An Official Nickname:[]
146 does not have an official nickname. The NPS has moved away from officially nicknaming bears at KNP&P.
"Addie" was a placeholder name used for 146 until her bear monitoring number and confirmation of her connection to that number was confirmed.

A Ranger Lian to mazey email on 6/6/2022 (not 6/6/2020) regarding 146 being an offspring to 505, "Didn't see any written notes on relationships but doesn't mean yes or no." There is no way to really confirm the link between subadults to the mother and siblings without DNA results.
*Note: This speculation by cam viewers is probably for 505F not 146 "Addie" now that 146's bear monitoring number and 146's connection to this bear monitoring number has been confirmed.
