#216 is a medium-sized adult female. She has a prominent shoulder hump, a shaggy and dark blonde coat, and blonde ears.

Her muzzle is straight and the long hairs on her chin gives it a bearded appearance.

With the exceptions of 2008, 2009, and 2010, #216 has been observed along the Brooks River every year since 1996. She fishes at the falls and the lower river area, and appears habituated to humans.

She can be aggressive towards other bears and has been observed bluff charging bears beneath the Falls Platform.

She is suspected to be the mother of females #790 and #854.

Beginning in 1998, #216 has raised several litters of cubs, but only keeps them through two summer seasons. She has not been observed caring for cubs into their third summer.

In 2005, she arrived at Brooks with four spring cubs. By the end of the summer season in 2006, she had only two left from this litter. She was pursued and courted by several males in 2007.
