We were able to photograph and enjoy two different black bear mamas with coy last October. One was near the Blacktail Plateau Drive, don’t remember the other. They grazed on hillsides and were fun to watch, especially the cubs. I enjoy learning from you, especially about the short faced bear! We spent a few days on Lake Superior in the Michigan UP recently. There had recently been black bear sightings but we didn’t spot any. Always a thrill to think maybe… long live the bear!

Thanks for another informative post, Rick! The Coast Range is crawling with black bears, and yet I rarely see them. I suspect they are wilier than we suspect, and this also aids in their remarkable ability to coexist with humans.
