The Denver Bears (also periodically known as the Grizzlies, Mountaineers or Mountain Lions) were a minor league baseball team from Denver, Colorado that played primarily in the Western League.
The team was replaced in 1955 by an American Association team of the same name that would eventually become the New Orleans Zephyrs.
