How Amie Huguenard Met “Grizzly Man” Timothy Treadwell
Lionsgate Films Timothy Treadwell gained widespread fame and notoriety for his interactions with grizzly bears, appearing on nationally syndicated talk shows and in schools as a bear advocate.
Amie Lynn Huguenard was born in Buffalo, New York, on October 23, 1965. She developed an interest in science and medicine and was also fascinated by the outdoors, spending much of her spare time hiking and climbing while working as a doctor’s assistant in Colorado.
It was during this period in 1997 that she read a book, Among Grizzlies, whose author claimed to have found solace from drug addiction in the company of Alaska’s brown bears. The writer’s name was Timothy Treadwell.
Soon, Amie Huguenard reached out to Treadwell, thus beginning a relationship which would last for nearly six years. It wasn’t long before she was flying up to Alaska to spend portions of the summers with him among the grizzlies of Katmai National Park.
During her annual trips north with Treadwell, Huguenard proved to be a capable companion. Her hiking and survival skills prepared her well for Katmai, over 12,000 square miles of wilderness home to more than 2,000 brown bears.
And in January 2003, she moved to live with him in Malibu, California, taking a position as a physician’s assistant at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
Amie Huguenard Pays For Treadwell’s Mistake
National Park Service This 28-year old bear, dubbed Bear 141, was shot dead after park rangers found it feeding on Amie Huguenard and Timothy Treadwell’s remains.
As the summer of 2003 drew to a close, the couple prepared to head home to California. But when Treadwell argued with a ticket agent over the cost of their flights, he decided to head back to Katmai for another week with Amie Huguenard in tow.
Fall is an exceptionally risky time to be around bears of all species, as they can become aggressive in their search for additional food to build up the fat reserves needed to survive hibernation. On October 1, Huguenard described a fight between bears over dwindling food supplies, and wrote that “seeing them claw, bite, and growl at each other made all of my fears come flooding back.”
The last sounds captured on the six minutes of tape were her screams before she too was carried off by the grizzly bear and killed.
National Park Service Pilot Willy Fulton assumed that Huguenard and Treadwell’s tent had been flattened in preparation for their departure.
Near the tent, they found Treadwell’s severed head and an arm. The body on which the bear had been feeding was that of Amie Huguenard. In the stomach of the bear they’d shot were other human body parts. And exactly why Treadwell chose to return to Katmai so late in the year, and why Huguenard chose to follow him, has never been explained.
