My house was a regular zoo yesterday. I had to run two black bears off my deck in the afternoon and these guys were hanging out all evening.
Wife took lousy pics, don't blame me |

Quoted:
pet the babies and take video  how do you scare off the bears?There was a cub on my railing so I went out and yelled at it. Turned out momma was on the steps where I couldn't see her. I yelled they left, I did have an 870 though, just a note, warning shots to scare them do not work. |

Quoted: Quoted: I have never had the opportunity to see one of these guys. I understand they are huge. Could you get a picture of yourself next to one so I will have a frame of reference? http://i972.photobucket.com/albums/ae206/wwace/hunting/2011cam173.jpg http://i972.photobucket.com/albums/ae206/wwace/hunting/hunting2011174.jpg Nice bull.

Quoted:
How close will they let you get? Some of them will let you get real close, but a lot of them will run like hell, and rarely one will charge you. I always keep some distance and don't take chances by getting close. I just saw one a few weeks ago along the Snake River, it looks really wierd to see tham out in the sage brush steppe with catcus and tumble weeds and no trees in sight. |
