Black bears have been rummaging around in the woods 100 yards north of our house. Across the stream there's a den with a sow and two cubs. Nice neighbors.
I have a paintball gun for bears.............

Well yeah, but the shed is like 3' tall.

WATCH: Bear dangles from window of Colorado home
A neighbor got video of a cinnamon-colored bear trying to escape a Steamboat Springs home on Wednesday afternoon.www.9news.com
"He's thinking about changing the door handles".
Or he could take the complicated step of locking the door...

Out to dinner w/ the Frau last spring. Kid calls while we are on the way home, the bear that got into the trash a few nights ago is in the yard again. I tell him we are on the way, will be there in a few minutes. I get home, grab a spotlight and go out on the deck, shine the light down the hill and see a big black something, believed to be but not proven to be a bear, near the easement. I think- "How did the dog get down there so fast?" I look down, and he is sitting right next to me. Right then, the other dog sees the big black something and lights out after it before I can say go. I think "Well, this oughta be interesting..." Dog goes ripping after the bear, yapping and yipping all the way like a hound from hell. Bear takes off. clears the cattle gate in one bound and disappears into the darkness. Dog comes trotting back up the hill thinking he is the baddest mofo in the hood...
TL/DR. Bears are fast, my dogs are knuckleheads

I've seen a bear run from my 13lb dog.
And then another bear just sit there and stare at him almost nose to nose.
Be careful with that. Scared enough, a bear will swipe at a dog and it's not pretty.
Guy I play hockey with suggested those, but he works doing wildland fire so he has a different perspective.
Yup, them bars is unpredictable as all get out. My dogs are both in the 100 lb range (Dont judge...) but they are pets, bears are still wild aminals...

what's with the family wrecking bullshit?
The sow's three young cubs, which have accompanied her on recent home break-ins, will potentially be relocated to Sonoma County Wildlife Rescue, a CDFW-permitted wildlife rehabilitation facility in Northern California.

Recently found a bear hole. The area smelled like a combination of wet dog, piss and BO.
Then I spotted potato bear grazing in the valley

Everyone likes a confident entrance.
“Heeeeere’s Johnny!”
Bummer, but should make riding the CDT during hyperphagia slightly less anxiety provoking.
I was *assured* that bears couldn't break into houses.
It is just called involuntary cohabitation.
Reminds me that I need to wash my bedding.
I fully support this sort of thing given those god awful temples to wealth west of town

We have a "friendly neighborhood" black bear. He likes to come on my deck at night and tip over the chairs. He's taken my birdfeeder and I have chased him down to get it back. I have no doubt he will be stopping by again soon as he looks for an easy meal. Doesn't scare me, but I seem to scare him!
Used to have a bear that would roll through the neighborhood and assault grills to clean out the grease traps.
horny bastard

If I go out west and geek out on the rocks. I would be afraid to stumble on a bear's den. While scrambling away I get stung by a scorpion. Then a mountain lion finishes me off. I only have to worry about ground bees and rattle snakes here.Recently found a bear hole. The area smelled like a combination of wet dog, piss and BO.

statistically speaking you're far more likely to be assaulted by an old white lady with german vacation sticks in a wide brimmed hat yelling at you for destroying mother earth with that mountainbike.
best practices involve a quick, wordless punch to the face. Doesn't even need to be hard, the species just isn't used to backlash because most of them have never encountered an opposing stance.
We have those too, however, the most dangerous thing here are the rocks (ground).
bro......eastcoastrox are legendary
west side ain't got nuthin
Just ask anyone from new hampshire
I can only speak for shit locally but have never heard of any anti MTB stuff at all. The only "get the fuck off this trail" incidents have been people yelling at hikers on DH specific trails. I guess there has been some kerfuffles over roadside parking up at Galbraith, I hardly ever make it up there as that drive makes me want to veer into a bridge abutment, which wouldn't do much going 3 MPH.
