I'm not real pleased with momma and the three cubs right
now. As I mentioned last week I've been using a scent dripper at the upper mountain
set. Well this week I found it on the ground chewed up and I have the culprits
on camera. They were nice enough to deposit it limb and all right in front of
the camera.
had set it to drip on the rock below it.
around it.
oil.That was the scent I was trying out.
sure it was us.
just chewed on the cap and screw on part of the main bottle. This was
why I was hesitate to put one of my good drippers out with all of the
bear activity.

i'm sorry, but i was laughing all the way through!!! i'm grateful all i have to worry about is stinking scamper rats at the birdfeeders and worse raccoon brats in my horse feed every night!
had to come back and go through it again. needed this laugh, today, joe! :D
Smart alec bears!
That's what bears do. They're smart and curious - be glad they didn't treat your camera the same way.
I would have been surprised if they hadn't pulled it down with that salmon scent in there. It was rather polite of them to leave it where you could find it. LOL! We had a bear destroy several young fruit trees on our property a couple of years ago.
Man, oh man! At least the camera made it!
Hopefully you can fix it! Bad Bears!!
Heh heh! What did you expect? I mean, salmon? Of course they took it down! Nice of them to leave it for you, at least.
brave ones!

I had to laugh, sorry!
Great Pictures!
Hope you can fix it!
Oh my gosh -- that's hilarious! I wish you would have given me a heads up on the salmon oil order -- I would have sent some extra goodies.
Next time. Can I use these photos on our website?
xo
PS - with full credit to you of course.
So sorry- but that's funny right there. LOL!
Gosh, I think they got the best of you, Joe! ;-)
was it wrong of me to really enjoy this post? i'm sorry!
Bad bears ;)) But great photos, I especially likes the one which stands on two legs, impressive animals :))
Yum! Salmon oil!!!! I love the bears so maybe I should put some in front of one of my cams! Those are awesome photos... but sorry about the dripper.
Amazed they didn't eat it. They ate my behive...bees, honey, nails, wood and all!Jack
