How far do bears travel
« on: August 03, 2013, 08:34:37 AM »
I saw a couple bears about a month and a half ago, how far do they usually travel, like do they stay in the same general area?

If there is food around (berries, grass etc...) the bear will stay as long as they don't get pushed  :twocents:

Home ranges depend on a lot of different factors. Sex, season, food availability, population density, pressure....

 This can give a rough idea though.

Do they tend to be in more thick areas?
