I live in town. These bears eat unlimited garbage from all my neighbors who are too dim to secure their trash cans. The reddish mama is pretty stout, 250ish.

Sure looks like a good sized sow. My road actually gets garbage service now, but i still dont use it. I keep my trash in some airtight tubs in my garage until i go to the dump. If i didnt it would certainly get rooted through by bears or yotes.

That is neat, did you bring them home from the blind during last years hunt. Looks like the one I saw from the blind. LOL

DM, they do look like the bears we saw @ that little pond last year. If they followed me home, it would be about a 200 mile walk.
We have a fairly beary neighborhood, this video happened a few blocks from my house.

Probably they will stick around as long as there is forage and become a total nuisance. Someone will call and the game department that will come out, shoot them with a dart and haul them off while they have a nap. Bye bears. :D
