Best Answer

Grizzly bears have been gone from Oregon for over 50 years. The last one was killed near Billy Meadows north of Enterprise in 1937. Their inability to adapt to human encroachment, coupled with their fearless nature combined to ensure that grizzly bears would be hunted to extinction in Oregon. Settlers could not live with the constant threat to their families and to their livestock that grizzlies represented.

Does California have a state animal?

Yes. The California state animal is the California grizzly bear. Unfortunately, the last California grizzly was shot in 1922. There are, however, plans afoot to reintroduce the grizzly back into some of its former ranges - including the Golden State. As a related bit of information, there is a bit of debate over whether the California grizzly was "different" enough to be a subspecies of the grizzly. But with the last ones gone, we will likely never know. Links are provided.
