A BEAR? I'm pissed about the bees in my yard.

They euthanized a bear this week that wandered through my neighborhood. Poor guy had already been tagged and relocated once (more than 50 miles away). They have a two strikes policy for 'nuisance' bears and they put him down.

This is why I don't call the conservation officer like I'm supposed to. Last time, they shot a baby cubby

That would scare the shit out of me, although I guess you would get used to it.

I can safely say I would move if there was a bear in my fucking yard.

I also wanted to move because of the stink bugs so it doesn't take much.

A bear got into the cottage last year and stole all the steaks out of the freezer. Left the hamburgers. Ripped the kitchen apart. Bears freak me out, but I love them as an animal. Smart. Unpredictable.

It's just a part of living here, and the benefits far outweigh the pesky bear problem. I have a big dog, so usually we don't worry about wildlife but he wasn't here last night.

I have a big dog too, I would be freaking out about him becoming bear dinner. Clearly wildlife makes me hysterical and irrational.

So did I. I think that must mean something. Like work needs to hurry and be over so I can start drinking.

I had a nightmare a few weeks ago about a bear in my yard, and I was afraid to let the dog outside. Then later there was a wolf too. And I think the wolf and the bear were fighting. Or playing. Or something.

I know there are bears in my area, but I've never seen one. Some of my coworkers have. I do not believe there are any wolves around here, but I have seen coyotes.

[CheshireGrin]

Oh, for the record, I would FLIP OUT if there was any evidence of a bear on my property, and probably never let my dog outside again.

Because he's just dumb enough to try to play with it.

My 12lb dog would try to bark at a bear, I'm sure of that. She started barking like a crazy dog when we passed a couple of horses on a trail once. I was like, "Really?? What are you going to do? His shoe weighs as much as you, dumbass!" The lady on the horse laughed.
