How lovely to be near the ocean.
There used to be a licenced Spring Bear Hunt in Ontario. A few years ago they cancelled it & it is no longer held. I think they felt that cubs were being left with no Mamas. It has caused some problems in certain areas - for ex the Bruce Penninsula...we've talked to local people who have had wooden shed doors ripped off, as the bears try to get to garbage. Also, I've heard of bears breaking car windows & it's been suspected that they did so either because they smelled food inside or knew somehow, that a plastic 'cooler' meant food!
The year that I told you I saw the bears at Killbear, one lady told me that she had been to the beach with her little dog & when they approached her campsite, her dog started yapping like crazy. Here, up her site, sat a bear, with her cooler open - it was eating yogurt out of a large yogurt contaier.!!! When she approached with her yappy dog, it got up & left!
