Big bear / color phase bear pics.....Ahhh Heck, ANY BEAR!!
« on: October 25, 2022, 09:28:54 PM »
Another post on here had me thinking about all the bears captured on trail camera.  This state has a few big one's running around.  What we don't have in the shear number of fatties....we make up for in color phase.  Let see what you all have on camera....dead or alive. 

I'll start with a couple fatties. 

Pic #1 is a spring bear.....still pretty large for a spring bear. 

Pic #2 is a spring pic as well.  Big boar and a sow.  I will add another picture with a frontal of the same bears to show how big the sow is to compare the boar to. 

For spring pics....they sure are porkers.  Probably put on another 50 lbs in fat by fall.

I run 12-15 trail cams year round.  The amount of bear, cougar, wolf, coyotes I get is unreal.   A lot of the bear and cat pics overlap in the same areas.   The wolf not so much.   

It’s amazing I get any deer and elk pics with this many predators.  In the same areas.   Most my cams are in the NE corner but I do have some in central and north central WA.

Just over the mountain to the north of Jrebel. I used to run 10+ trail cams in the area and have a huge amount of bear pics. The red bear would come in to my friends house I had listed for sale.Always went to the bird feeder.Butch called the bear Rudy.
