We have a problem bear right now.
Might be the same bear from last year.
Over the winter one of my neighbors about a mile away was saying he saw numerous bears on his property.
Well, having a bear pass through is normal for us but having it or them live near us is odd, so asked my neighbor what has changed.
He said all of the local bear hunters used up all of their allowed lifetime bear tags. So they haven’t been hunter in 2 years.
So we’re on “Bear Alert” here, my 3 large 130 pound German Shepherds are gun trained so the .357 magnum I carry will hopefully scare the bear away. Don’t want a Bear vs Dog fight either.
