Help Keep The Bears Wild by David H. Day We had just turned in for the second evening of our 7-day Yosemite backpack; it was a few minutes after 9:00pm, and we had been having a good conversation around the dying fire. About five minutes after zipping up our sleeping bags, I thought I heard ‘footsteps’ passing by our tent. Since there were 11 others in our group, I didn’t think too much of it; until we heard the rattle and snapping of dead branches on a tree some distance beyond our tent. We both knew instantly that what we were hearing was our bear-bag being raided. I yelled "BEAR!" and called out to the group leader to alert him. We then threw our shoes and jackets back on and piled out to see what was going on. Sure enough, a sow black bear was putting on a ‘how-to’ for her two cubs – and us. This bear bag was hung absolutely by the book; 20 feet up and 8 or so feet out on a live, strong, but thin-at-the-tip branch. With the cubs watching, she first tried to shake the branch. When that didn’t work, she tried to stretch out to reach, but it was too far out and the many dead branches were in the way. Next, she tried to bite off the branch. Finally, she climbed up to the branch above and dropped down onto the gnawed branch, breaking it off at the point she had chewed. She caught herself right away, and lead the cubs down to the ground for a snack. It took her less time to take it down than it did for me to put it up! All during this time, as per Park policy, we had been harassing the bear by yelling, blowing whistles, banging pots and pans, throwing rocks, etc.. We need not have bothered; she paid us no mind whatsoever. We finally returned to our tents to nervously wait out the rest of the raid. For the next couple of hours, she and the cubs wandered back and forth between our site and two sites on the other side of the stream. Needless to say, not a whole lot of sleeping was done until they left.

Some bears lose their natural fear of human activity; they become increasingly at ease in and around Lake Louise, the rail line and roadways. These bears are more likely to be killed by vehicles and trains, or be destroyed as a public safety risk. Since 2000, seven grizzly bears are known to have died human-caused deaths within the greater Lake Louise area: three on the Trans-Canada Highway, one of the Icefields Parkway, and three on the rail line. Loss of wary behaviour likely contributed to these deaths. Grizzly bears and people can co-exist at Lake Louise if bears can use habitat without constantly encountering people. The separation of bears and people helps keep bears wild and people safer.

26. MrOutdoors.com - Columns Containers help keep bears wild in the wild officials might be overestimating the necessity for bear containers, I like the idea of keeping bears wild. http://www.mroutdoors.com/columns/2001/0429out.html

A product of The Sun newspaper Search SunLink: " ALIGN="center"> Containers help keep bears wild in the wild Seabury Blair Jr. Mr. Outdoors In an effort to keep black bears eating roots and berries instead of your freeze-dried Thai chicken, Olympic National Park officials have invested about $50,000 in bear-resistant containers. They'll loan you one if you're headed to the Olympic backcountry this season. While there's no charge for the containers, park rangers suggest a $3 donation to help defray costs of the program. "Our goal," says Bryan Bell, Olympic ranger who works at the park's Wilderness Information Center in Port Angeles, "is to get the containers into the hands of people who want to use them, not to make money." In fact, both backcountry and frontcountry visitors to the park have already paid for the 700 containers through entrance and permit fees. The containers can be picked up and dropped off at Olympic National Park Ranger Stations where backcountry permits are issued. Bear-resistant containers have been used with substantial success in other national parks. Hikers heading for the backcountry of Alaska's Denali have been required to carry the canisters for years.

30. Keep Maryland’s Black Bears Wild Keeping bears wild is a community effort that benefits both bears and people and Seeing a bear in the wild can be an experience to remember for life. http://www.dnr.state.md.us/dnrnews/pressrelease2005/042705c.html

Press Releases DNR Press Room Search DNR DNR Home Keep Maryland’s Black Bears Wild ANNAPOLIS, MD ? The Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Wildlife and Heritage Service would like to remind people living in and visiting bear country to do their part to help keep Maryland’s black bears wild. In April, after a long winter slumber, bears begin to emerge from their dens hungry and looking for food. Bears may cover long distances in search of food, and will take advantage of unnatural food sources if they are available. Humans who make food available to bears inadvertently create a problem for both bears and people. Bears can easily become habituated to human activity and begin to associate humans with food. This can lead to a potentially dangerous situation. Keeping bears wild is a community effort that benefits both bears and people and springtime is a good time to start. By not attracting the bears now, you can keep them away throughout the year. Trash and birdfeeders are the two most common unnatural food sources that lure bears into developed areas. There are a few easy steps that should be taken to avoid a visit from a bear. Keep your trash locked in a bear-proof trash container or inside a building until the day of pick-up. Remove your trash often so odors are less likely to attract an unwanted bruin. Clean your trash cans with ammonia after they are emptied and rinse your food containers before placing them in the trash. Take your bird feeders down from April through November, as natural foods are plentiful for birds during this time. If you insist on feeding the birds, it is recommended that you bring your feeders in at night when bears are more active. This will not only prevent bears from eating your birdseed but it will also prevent them from destroying the feeder to get to the food. You may also consider hanging your bird feeders at least 10 feet above the ground and at least 6 feet from any vertical structure, such as a building or tree. Feeders can be hung this way from a cable suspended between two trees.

The Bears Among Us by John Seidensticker Paul Shepard and Barry Sanders place the bear in a cultural context in The Sacred Paw: The Bear in Nature, Myth and Literature. Bear myths and rituals, they conclude, center on the theme of renewal, including the reincarnation of the soul, the symbolic replenishment of food, the passage of initiation, or the renewal of clan power. Bears are the symbolic image of brave deeds. It is best to back off from an encounter like this, and in my experience bears also seem to know this. After the adrenaline subsides, there is time to consider what Shepard and Sanders have so eloquently written: "The bear strikes a cord in us of fear and caution, curiosity and fascination…a kind of ideogram of humankind in the wilderness, a thorough telling of what we were and perhaps what we lost: wily, smart, strong, agile, and independent in ways that we humans left behind when we took up residence in the city." As a curator of bears, I reaffirm this connection with a bear nearly every morning when I make my rounds. So can you with a visit to see our bears at the National Zoo.

Contact Us Search Location: Alberta Government Sustainable Resource Development Fish and Wildlife Wildlife in Alberta ... Bears in Alberta Bear Safety Last Review/Updated: May 24, 2002 Understanding Bear Behavior Although bears are unique as individuals, just like humans, they display patterns of behavior that people who visit wild country should understand. Bears are solitary except during the brief mating period (May to July) and when females are accompanied by their young. Bear society is characterized by a tendency of individuals and family groups to be spatially segregated, each in their own territory or home range. When they do come together, the outcome is determined by their social status. Usually adult males are most dominant, followed by females with young, then females without young. Subadults are at the lowest level. Confrontations are resolved by body language (e.g., an aggressive stance), facial expression, or growling leading to a charge or flight. On occasion, if the animals are close in social status, a serious fight may ensure. Bears are curious, which has survival advantage because it may lead to the discovery of the best foods. If a bear has scented a person, it usually leaves quickly, but first it may stand to get a better view, sniff the air or circle downwind. A bolder bear may display the same kind of threat that it would toward another bear, such as huffing, panting or growling or "jaw-popping". Staring directly with head lowered and ears laid back, it may walk stiffed-legged; slap vegetation or the ground with its front feet; or make one or more bluff charges. The purpose of such behavior is to establish the dominance relationship without fighting, thus avoiding injury.

Have your say on the Message Board Habitat destruction Many bears suffer from the effects of the logging industry and the spread of the human population. Bear habitat is either destroyed or pockets of forest are left so that populations become isolated from each other. Hunting Bears are hunted for ‘sport’ and by farmers trying to protect their businesses. Poachers also hunt them for their fur. Bear hunting is permitted in some European and north American regions for particular species. Quotas may be given that can stipulate that all parts are used (although not listed as endangered by the IUCN, brown bears are recognised as a threatened species in 48 US states). Giant pandas are sometimes killed by poachers who sell the skins as highly prized sleeping mats.

Welcome to the Barbara-Ann Bears website. We are Barbara-Ann Cunningham and Andy Cunningham and we make wild and wonderful artist teddy bears, dragons and rabbits in very small limited editions and one of a kinds. They range in colour from traditional browns and greys to hand-dyed, colourful, wacky creations. We mainly use mohair but will occasionally use high quality faux fur (fake fur), most of the mohair is hand dyed by Barbara. Here's a quick guide to the website. If you would like to see the bears and dragon ready for immediate adoption please click on the picture below or the link on the left. New bears and a dragon were added on 15th September. We can also supply your bears with our own gift tags , let us know if you would like one (or some) included with your bear. We have arranged with a professional photographer, Sarah Smith, to make some Barbara-Ann Bear greetings cards, featuring some of our old bears enjoying themselves in a variety of playful poses, please follow the link on the left to see the cards. She's recently had some of our more modern bears. Our bears, rabbits and dragons are generally made using high quality German mohair, a lot of which I hand dye to create the vibrant colours I love so much. A few bears are made using exotic fabrics and faux fur more generally used in high fashion houses. Neither of us smoke, so the bears are made in a smoke free environment.
