First post, Maple Valley bear
« on: May 13, 2015, 09:48:22 PM »
Here's a big boar that keeps visiting the house, at least once a week.  The garbage can gets torn into almost every time.  He definitely looks like a nice rug.

I have plenty more pictures of the wildlife that strolls through the yard.  I will do my best to remember to post them up later.   That bear is in it EVERY time theres a container from left over La Fuente (renton highlands) in there.  He's never dug in from the Mexican food leftovers from maple valley restaurants.  He's  a picky bear.

If he is ripping in to your garbage make sure to put plenty of apples, etc in the trash so he tastes good when you bag him. :chuckle:

Just a few others.   The whole herd passed through with the big bull elk.  Was about an hours timelapse for them all to go through.  It's pretty amazing how tight of space they can navigate through and be stealthy quiet about it.
