I live up north of Bellingham, a half a mile from the border. Been here 35 years and other than a few coyotes, several deer and a couple of cougars, that has been the extent of wildlife I've observed. I Last week right in the middle of the day, a big Black Bear strolled through my pasture and is still in the area. Had an ear tag so I guess he was part of the catch and release border procedures.
