You ever spoon a bear?

[Redneck]

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.

I would say far from normal. Could be a number of things. Hard to speculate. Maybe he is a little on the slow side and didn't realize how sleepy he was actually getting before it was too late.

Do bears drink Canadian whiskey?

Crazy! Grizzly moment when you find out that you've exceeded the bears limit of human interaction.

We have a probably to many bears around here. We get two bear tags a year and if you have a good spot easy to get them both in a day. I think he was the smallest one around and all the good spots around were taken by bigger bears. It would be it's first winter away from mom and mabie laft her a little late. I should get out there in the next two days.

Better not start drinking whisky might have a little war on our hands!

Just be careful... it is, after all, a bear. And where's there's one, there's probably more.

Why does this thread make me think of Stinky Hooker?
