Bears and Anise Oil
I've kind of gotten back into the lure and scent testing mood lately. One oil I've found that the bears love is Anise oil. Anise oil has a very strong black licorice odor. I put the oil in a scent egg. This is a round wooden ball with the center drilled out and a short stake attached to it so you can anchor it into the ground. Every bear that came by the camera stopped at the scent egg to check it out.

i like the smell of anise, too. :)

I have to say that I don't like the smell of anise, but nice to see that the bears do.
We use anise in a few lures -- funny how they find it right away. I wonder if they like licorice? :)
Great pictures :)
That is a lot of bears! Who knew they liked licorice?
So many bears! Your bear posts are among my favorites.
Interesting! Well, it's a strong smell so I guess it carries quite a distance.
When I took a bear behavior field course this summer, the researchers told me about anise oil, and I forgot until now! I need to try that.
Can you buy scent eggs?
