Had a young Bear come around for a snack.  Had another come around a couple weeks ago that was considerably larger but didn't have my trail cam set up at the time

Our bears aren't that gentile, they would tear the feeder down first then eat the contents. Around here most folks take their bird feeders down at sunset...or else they won't be there in the morning.

A 160 lb young Blackie strolled through my yard one night years ago. I know exactly how much it weighed because Animal Control tranked it when it was found that morning sleeping in a tree at a softball park a quarter mile down the street.

I'd have not known it was around but my old Bear Dog woke up ready for a fight demanding to be let out. The bear was long gone by the time I found a leash and my pistol.

I replaced the partly broken down flimsy privacy fencing that week with double thick panels screwed down with stainless steel screws.

Cool video Marc. No bears around here, did have one pass through the area a year or so ago , but he didn't live or stay here. He was headed to east TN. the game people said looking for a home. :)
