Cheeky bear

Postby wawhitey » 08 14, 2017 •  [Post 1]

Pretty ridiculous. I just pulled up at my house, window down music blaring. I slam my truck door, walk around to the back porch and sit down to look at my phone. I hear something big moving in the bushes, figure its a deer. A sow with a cub pop out not 30 yards from me, despite the noise i made. I yell "HEY, GET OUTTA HERE!" And she just looked at me, kinda uninterested, until i popped off a couple rounds from my sidearm in her general direction. Then she ran off with her cub at something less than a frantic pace.

Obviously, she was there for one of two reasons. To swing by for a social visit and a small glass of fine bourbon, or, to protest your taste in music. I think perhaps it's the latter ;).

You could have obviously been a better host by invited them in for dinner.

Hell no. Not putting out anything until the bears disappear for the winter. Had to chase a couple out of my yard this summer, just shocked at how bold this one was, especially considering she had a cub. My truck pulling up didnt even phase her, neither did my yelling at her.

Just checked this cam, it caught pics of them running up my hill. Only saw the 1 cub when they ran off.
