Question: Deer avoid Bears?
New member with a question. The area I normally hunt usually produces at least some "sightings". Not last weekend. I could not understand it. Then the last afternoon I found a big pile of bear droppings within 100 yards of where I was hunting.
The question is - do deer vacate an area when a bear moves in? It is a black bear, as I hunt in Virginia.
Appreciate any help I can get. Thanks
