It is that time of year more people out and about plus more bears increases the danger.

Stay alert be careful and aware, take appropriate action when necessary.

Oh boy, now the propaganda's gonna hit
full stride about bear spray. Just watch.

Lucky, all three of them.

Another yesterday, about 13 miles to the south. The drainages in the Gravelly complex now have bears throughout. Desperately in need of delisting and a season.

Bears are also concentrating on feeding up for winter, which makes them less tolerant and more aggressive.

Grizz

they are a bit light on their normal fall foods around here this year.

most of the campgrounds all have signs warning of bear sightings and big signs are tacked on the trees in areas with problem bears.

if a problem arises it ain't cause people haven't been warned.

Heard a Montana fish and game biologist talking about these attacks on NPR today. Seemed like a level headed guy. I surely would not want to have a close grizz encounter.

If they have a problem it could just really be the bears fault.

I see no reason to have people alter their behavior because a bear behaves badly.
