Black Bears in Minnesota

Black bear sow & her two twin cubs. These have been frequent visitors at our house this year, and unwelcome guests to help themselves to our bird feeders. :frowning:

Hi @PrestonAZTXMN These photos are lovely of the Mama bear and her babies. Wow they actually come by your house. Are they friendly bears or scary bears!

The large bear looks like my sister, small world.

haha

Black Bears normally don’t hurt humans. However, almost the only exception is when a sow is with her cubs. You would never want to get between them. I live on 10 acres of forested land that backs up to state land. They come by more than I care for.

Maybe put a grizzly bear decoy in your yard and that would scare them off. That are maybe a scarecrow? Do they run away when shouted at?

Thank you @PrestonAZTXMN for sharing
