‘399 Forever’ Documents the Life and Legacy of Grizzly 399

Idaho Falls Pocatello, ID, October 16, 2026 —

A new documentary about Grizzly 399, a famous bear from Grand Teton National Park, is available on Amazon Prime Video. Titled 399 Forever, the film follows the bear’s life and legacy and uses her story to explore conservation themes.

The documentary includes Grizzly 399’s numerous cubs and her interactions near human development around Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Those elements place the bear’s story in a setting where wildlife and developed areas are close to one another, though the available description does not provide further details about specific encounters or conservation measures.

The film’s account culminates in Grizzly 399’s death in a vehicle collision south of Jackson on October 22, 2024. The summary does not specify additional circumstances surrounding the collision.

Grizzly 399’s life and death provide the central narrative through which 399 Forever addresses conservation, according to the description. The film’s availability on Amazon Prime Video gives viewers access to that account, but details such as its release date, runtime, filmmakers and other contributors were not provided.

The description also does not identify particular conservation policies or actions discussed in the documentary. It characterizes the film more broadly as an exploration of conservation through the bear’s life, her cubs and her proximity to human development near Jackson Hole.
