OMG! BEAR SIMONE BROUGHT HER CUBS!

(For licensing or usage, contact [e-mail])
First visit this year by your favorite girl, Simone! AND YES, SHE BROUGHT HER FIRST EVER LITTER OF CUBS!!!!
The collar is gone - nice! - and she looks well-fed. The cubs are the cutest things to ever have walked these woods, but then I'm kind of biased.
Being that it's her first litter I tried my best not to spook her or the little ones. She seemed pretty comfortable with the proximity so I'm guessing we'll be seeing her again soon.

@@nickgehr3015 The Bible teaches that Jesus is not merely someone who is a lot like God, or someone who has a very close walk with God. Rather, Jesus is the Most High God himself. Titus 2:13 says that as Christians we are “looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus.” Upon seeing the resurrected Christ, Thomas cried out, “My Lord and my God!” (John 20:28). Likewise, the book of Hebrews gives us God the Father’s direct testimony about Christ: “But of the Son he says, ‘Your throne, O God, is forever and ever" and the gospel of John calls Jesus “the only begotten God” (John 1:18). Another way the Bible teaches that Jesus is God is by showing that he has all of the attributes of God. He knows everything (Matthew 16:21; Luke 11:17; John 4:29), is everywhere (Matthew 18:20; 28:20; Acts 18:10), has all power (Matthew 8:26-27; 28:18; John 11:38-44; Luke 7:14-15; Revelation 1:8), depends on nothing outside of himself for life (John 1:4; 14:6; 8:58), rules over everything (Matthew 28:18; Revelation 1:5; 19:16;), never began to exist and never will cease to exist (John 1:1; 8:58), and is our Creator (Colossians 1:16).

NOT SWEET. NOT SAFE. A bear that habituates to human beings is a bear that is likely to get itself into trouble breaking into a house for food. Or simply hanging around possibility that food could become available. The sense of smell is phenomenal compared to human beings. That bear was checking out the availability of food.

It's not quite as weird as youd think. Male bears are known to kill cubs that aren't theirs.

[@Jones4Leather]

@Mark Aspen Black bears absolutely ARE carnivorous.the big problem here is a bear that does not fear people will be strongly attracted to the sweets and fats stored in houses. Once a bear succeeds in eating people food it will continue to go for it and teach the cubs to do the same. As a result, a bear that lacks fear of people will become a serious nusience raiding trash and breaking into homes, often killing pet dogs that attack them. It may get shot by a homeowner or be trapped and relocated very far away.anynwill return anyway and have to be put down. From outside the house, a bear can smell what is in the garbage, freezer, fridge and cabinets. People food is easier to get and more calorie dense than their natural sources. They primarily get calories from vegetable sources or easy animal sources like large fish in shallow water or a carcass of a moose or deer killed by wolves. They rarely kill large prey themselves. They are less defensively aggressive or predatory toward people compared to grizzlies, but on very rare occasions they stalk and eat people.
