BEAR ! ! !

Don't be leaving any pic-a-nic baskets laying around.....

Now the same story from the perspective of the Bear:

There I was, pulling down a hummingbird feeder that was eight feet off some guys deck in Florissant (I just pulled some old jerky meat from a cache and was looking for some sweets)...

And here I saw, taking a dump, Biggest sombitch I've ever seen!
He was at least three feet wide sitting on the John!

I tapped on the window and he ambled off into the bathroom. And came back with a gun!

I left when I saw that!

Still shaking.

Won't sleep.

I've seen bears on my property dozens of times and every single time they just walk or run off as soon as they realize they are not alone. I've had them on my deck and the moment I look through the window and he sees me he bolts into the woods. There is very little risk of one hurting you if you keep your distance and don't f*ck with them.

Please don't panic and blast a bear just because he's there. Be careful, of course, but don't overreact either.

To quote DOWs position re: bears "if you shoot a bear out of season or without a license, you'd better have claw marks on your ass"

Got lotsa bears. Fun to watch em.

Other than the occasional tipping of trash cans, bears are mostly harmless around the house (unless there's cubs). While bears are capable of killing and eating you, most of the time they'll leave you alone and go away when you yell at them (again, unless there's cubs involved ... or they're starving, which is real rare).

Black Bears aren't all that aggressive. That doesn't mean you should try to pet them.

Honestly I'd rather have bears as neighbors than Democrats.

Relax. It was just Bigfoot

^For the win!! Bears are just misunderstood. C'mon, we just need open dialogue, some sensitivity training, some understanding and then we can all coexist!
