 * Reason:While the colours are very nice, the image quality and encyclopedic value are low. This wouldn't have a chance of passing today, and doesn't particularly contribute to any articles.
 * Articles this image appears in:List of mammals of Alaska, List of mammals of Canada
 * Previous nomination/s:Featured picture candidates/Grizzly Denali edit.jpg, Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/delist/File:Grizzly Denali edit.jpg

 * Keep &mdash; The quality seems impressive to me, and this is not an account of the colors- I could care less about that aspect. However, you may have a perspective that I might understand, if you explained it. D ARTH B OTTO talk•cont 23:05, 21 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delist &mdash; The animal is indeed not clearly visible. D ARTH B OTTO talk•cont 23:57, 21 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Delist &mdash; Its a pretty good pic but it only shows half the animal and there is unfocused brush in the way which is distracting. There are a lot of featured mammals photos that were nominated along time ago and are not up to standards and are not used in articles. MatGTAM (talk) 11:46, 21 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delist Agree, this is not a particularly rare animal so I don't think it would be good to keep a low resolution image with half of the animal obscured. Mattximus (talk) 23:48, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Woah, delist. I'm surprised this passed even back in the day, frankly--the brush is clearly blurred artificially (you can tell first because there should be line of brush in focus parallel to the bear, and there isn't, and second because there'd be no way to get so narrow a depth of field without being right up next to the bear), and it fails criterion 8.
