Bear Rump

[TheStovePipeKid]

Swapped my camera cards yesterday and hung some new ones. I was angling for this guy last fall but couldn't quite connect. Never caught sight of him but found several large scat piles. I've got a fall tag with his name on it. He slipped through the perimeter of the camera and his rump was all it got. I'm still holding on hope to pin down a cougar this fall as well.

That looks pretty squatchy.

  First thing I thought Bigfoot

That looks pretty squatchy.

I thought the same thing.

I almost joked about whether I should post in the bigfoot thread. It definitely pulled off a slick trick avoiding the camera.

Definitely bigfoot! Stealth move hiding his head behind the tree....

When I saw the title I thought it was going to be a recipe or a picture of a roast - and everybody knows bigfoots are brown, not black

That's exactly what I thought I was going to be too!

So I pulled my cards yesterday and in mid June I have three Cubs playing on one camera and what looks to be a year or two old bear on another cam all within an area of only a few hundred yards. I never did get the sow on film but it looks like I've got as many bears as deer. All within 250 yards of my step dad's place. He's getting nervous because all the grandkids play at their place and it's heavily wooded. I've put up a camera at the corner of their place where I believe Mr. Rump is hanging out. I'll post some pictures and see if someone that knows bears can age them.
