      Grizzlies are the subspecies unique to North America, closely tied to the Kodiak, and are considerably larger than the Eurasian or Siberian brown bears. The article would be referring to one of those latter two, probably.

      Although I imagine the same issue exists for the Grizzlies and Kodiaks of North America.
