Cool

That's just crazy. Now if it were me, the softie side of me would have gone and gotten a bunch of styrofoam blocks and built a shelter around him for the winter.
I know, I know, it's the laws of nature, but dammit, sometimes nature needs a helping hand. Great pics in all cases...

hows the old saying go? Don't wake a sleeping bear? Or better, "hey ya'll watch this, I'm gonna screw with that sleeping bear...." it could end up like those jack link commercials with Sasquatch

I have seen some strange things nature has to offer but that will be in at or near the top for the rest of my days. He had no intrest in trying to get me just wanted to be left alone to sleep. My ex must have been related lay around and sleep all the time real grumpy when disturbed short and flufy.That give a guy an idea why you see some crazy SOB crawling into a den on tv to see if theres a bear in it.

I hear you Destroyer I want to go back out there and build something for him. It's about a 140Km round trip the moral victory would be worth it alone. I might get to go back that direction in a few days.

Maybe use bails of straw instead of foam blocks. He11, just take him home w/ ya and lay him at the foot of your bed. Talk about a conversation piece....a live bearskin rug.

Bails of straw, a plywood roof with a few more bails on it to hold it in place and you're good to go. Great idea Blue!!! Economical, ecological, and non-injurious to the bear or the environment.

Can that be normal? He certainly looked healthy enough from the eyes and mouth and certainly looked comfortable enough but why would a bear sleep like that in the open for two days unless he was sick or injured.
