I grew up in the "black bear Capitol of Michigan". We always had bears around and some of the shenanigans they were capable of would amaze most people.

The minute I saw this thread it got my attention. Last September I had an approx 450 pound Bruin open the back hatch on my cap and open the tailgate to climb into the back of my truck while it was parked in front of my cabin. We have a lot of bear activity in our area (North Eastern Washington State) and I have seen some amazing things from bears and coyotes both but that really took the prize. There was nothing in the bed of the truck and the bear didn't tear anything up, I had gone grocery shopping that afternoon so he most likely was smelling to food that had been in there. We normally harvest a bear every third year or so. Baiting is illegal and the bears certainly prove to be much smarter than the average hunter in Washington State.
Good Hunting !

That's right, suoport your right to keep and arm Bear's!
However, I wonder when it will become racist to call them black?

Not a story about bears but related to today's issues. Saw this on a shirt...had some made up. "Jelly fish have survived for millions of years without a brain...this give so many people hope"

the interesting thing about stories like that (there's lots of them) is that it indicates that even though in nature there's very little that would choose to mess with a full grown bear, they're cautious anyways. The know they're not invincible. Again, smarter than a lot of people who don't seem to know that….
Heres my visitor . His mumma left him here back around may of this year , he comes by the house a couple times each week . Actually looking good seeing as there are extreme shortage of berries in the bush this year . Worse case we had here was seven bears in my back yard at one time !!!

I have a kitchen and office in the barn. Was I. The office last month with the kitchen door open so the dog could go out. Bear walked in and grabbed the trash can. He was ****ed when I caught him and it was a trash can stand off for several minutes before he gave up. No food in the can. He came back next day and grabbed the one out of the machine shed.
