    Gods I know. Bear wandered in the dog door while I was on vacation. My 18-yo friend watching the place had me laughing my ass off at the situation. Needed that as I had just seen my mom for the last time, dying of COVID.

    Wasn’t so funny after I talked to the state bear biologist and the contractor that worked for her. He set a snare in my yard, big trailer with a trap door. He was sad, biologist was sad, I was sad, but that’s how it has to go once a bear wanders in a home. Contractor went door-to-door begging people to lock their trash cans so this kind of thing doesn’t have to happen.

    Yes, I thought about sabotaging the trap, but he had a trail cam on 4G recording 24x7. I might still have freed that bear if he had shown up. Anyway, kept 3 shotguns within reach for a year behind that mess. (I have a pet pig to defend that apparently the bear was after for dinner.)

    He got away! Never came back thank god.
