Yep. They kinda like coons once they loose the fear of ya there's not much left to do then.. Can't say there's a shortage of black bears in those parts either.. If he'd called TWRA the bear would be long gone and if he kills it TWRA will say now bury it.. TWRA does not come get dead wildlife..

Couldn`t find the article again but read about a bear that broke into a car,blew the horn and then drove it into a thicket. Seems the owner had left a pbj sandwich in the back seat. The bear opened the door of the unlocked car and got trapped inside because the door shut. The bear then demolished the interior trying to get out. In the process knocked the car out of park and rolled down a hill into a thicket. The bear was freed by tying a rope to the door handle and opening the door from a safe distance. The owner of the car said the bear left him a big present piled on the drivers seat.

Somewhere I think there's a picture of a bear next to Pappy's old green Southern Bell Line truck. It would have been some time in the early 50's..

Don`t mind coons as much as I do skunks. Don`t want them around. Not so much for gettin sprayed as rabies.
