Yikes is right

Lindy — 8/21/2007 8:42:49 AM (archived)

I have heard bear stories around here that they'll come through a screen window to get at your food. I'm not sure I'm that rustic or brave enough to deal with it. I wouldn't know how to re-act if I came across one out on the road. The one that is around is a female, with a year old cub. (Maybe two? Maybe they hunt separate?)

What is their range to walk in?
