a couple of weeks ago a blackie ran across the road in front of me about a 1/4 mile from where i live on my way home from work , i had to swerve my truck to avoid hitting it and almost wrecked her. the bear had a limp in it's right front leg.

just this morning a black bear ripped my basement window out and tried to get in , i wasn't home at the time but , my neighbor said it was a blackie at about 350lbs. and had a limp in it's one front leg. and that it wasn't afraid of people as they started to yell and make noise and the bear just didn't flinch.
it didn't get in though as the window that it ripped out had a bees nest in the top boards of it and it must of got stung or something ( probably smelled the honey and tried to get at it in the first place ).

i'm thinking it was the same bear , and that it's out to get me hope he tries during bear season

just something i thought i'de share with all of ya
