A 91大黄鸭 woman captured footage of a rare white grizzly bear in a Banff mountain park.
Jasmine Johnsen was driving through Banff Friday, June 19, and happened to have her phone at the ready at the perfect moment.
鈥淏y chance I got a really wicked shot of him on camera!鈥� she said, sharing the video to Facebook.
The distinctive bear was spotted in Banff National Park two months ago and has been nicknamed Nakoda by locals. Parks Canada said it鈥檚 not an albino but rather a natural colour phase variation. While unusual, the agency said white bears have been seen before.
Parks Canada has said that while the bear may be alluring, it鈥檚 important to give it space鈥攁nd if spotted near the highway, do not stop.
