Default RE: Bear Question

Just a quick post, hopefully I will have more time later to post. Buta bear that looses it's fear of humans can be and I stress the word can, become a terrible nusciance as well as a danger. Try by scaring it away first, loud noises or a shot in the air. If that don't work and he comes back, I would call your local warden and inform him/her of the problem and see what they come back with. I live in the woods in northwestern Ontario where there are bears everywhere. I don't worry too much about the odd bear that comes poking around camp. Where I do get a little edgy is when they come back and just look at you or woof or snap teeth or thump the ground with their front feet. I have been false charged a couple of times by bears that get into our garbage and wont leave. I have two little boys myself and feel the need to protect my family if needed. Just keep an eye on them, like I said once they loose the fear of us, they become a pretty brave animal and when the tree runs out of apples, they will more than likely forage for something else.
Well, guess that was more than just a quickie, but that is my feelings on the situation.
Keep us informed
