If you get between a bear and it's cub, that's your quandry.

HEY... that's awfully easy to do in my neighborhood just by parking in your driveway LOL

We average about 3 bears per square mile here... my parents bought a house a few streets away from us, the previous owner of that home did NOT like having a black bear in her kitchen one day ;-)

Don't have bears out here on the eastern plains of Montana, but we do have alot of coyotes and wolves! The shrill noise they howl is enough to make your skin crawl! So far we haven't lost any livestock. There's a wolf den about a mile south of the homestead here, but they can "throw their voices" to where it sounds like they're in the back yard. LOL
