Last Year Hogs moved in. Ths Year its...

[Ron Don]

BEAR! Today dad moved a ground blind about 50 yards from here. When he got home and checked the the pictures I dunno if he still wants to be sitting in that blind! Last year was the first year we had hogs move in on us. This year looks to be teh year of the black bear!

Lots of jigs in that fur!!!!!!!! Just be real careful in getting him

Nice sweet tatter pile.. My wife''s nephew west of you said they have been seeing them also.

That would wake you up quickly from wanting to take a nap in the blind! Cool pic.

Just don't have any snacks in there with you . Take a big steal pot and a wooden heavy spoon If he gets to messing around close Jump up and start whaling on that pot . He will scoot right on out . Unless there are cubs and it's a she . If that is the case there is a 50/50 chance it will run at you .

5 minutes before that pic there were 4 does there eating. Ha guess they didnt want to mingle with the bear! So i guess bears like sweet taters too. Wonder how many he can down in a day!

 

[Radtexan]

Wow.....that is quite a pile ya got there Ronny !!

 

[CrappieHappy]

Hmm, that would make a nice rug...

The bear can eat about 20 lbs of those unless he took a poop before he started then it would be 25 .

Good possibility he has a chip in him. In other words you better have claw marks on ya before you touch him!

Sling shot...... paintballs......

 

[Fatman]

Ok now that I know what the bear is on top of, are those just harvested, or waiting to be taken in??? And no I don't want any don't like em!!

I have some buddies that have a lease in Jefferson County, right on the LA. border. They have seen an increase in Bears since the big fire last year. The Game Warden told them to ignore them, and to not harvest them unless life threatening...
