Was this a bear?
« on: June 16, 2011, 02:28:03 PM »
Went to check my trail cams today and found this tree about 30 yards from my camera. Do you think a bear did this? To bad the batteries have been dead for two weeks.

My guess Mountain Beaver???? :dunno:

Does not look like bear to me. Scrap lines are too uniform.


Yes, Beaver!

I have only seen beaver eat/chew circumfrentially, not longitudinally.

My guess is beaver if you look at the claw marks in the close up shot, it look way too small to be a bear.
