Title: A bear needs to be dealt with.....
Post by: jtrammell on October 31, 2014, 01:22:17 PM: There is a family that lives in Elma, Washington that needs a bear taken care of. It is killing his farm animals and causing a disturbance around his home. If anyone is interested please let me know. He would take care of it but 1) Has no bear experience and 2) Is disabled. He wants this problem fixed ASAP. He has said that calling the warden will be the last option because he would like to help someone fill a tag and get some meat.

If you are interested please let me know.

SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY

They only went out once I believe. No catch. The bear is a nuisance and the land owner wants it taken care of. Mainly nocturnal but has been seen during the day.

Post by: splashcaster on November 05, 2014, 06:38:19 PM: I only had the chance to go out one day. Lots of sign, HUGE prints but no bear at that time. Nice family, I would encourage any one who has the time to try to help out. They said it's been pretty much sun down and early early morning, also a coyote spotted there recently.

Somebody may get lucky or the bear may make a mistake, but with so many cooks in the kitchen I think it is a long shot at best.

Post by: Rakkasan00 on November 20, 2014, 06:47:19 AM: Damn! I ran into this too late. I've been up in the mountains looking for Bear most of the season. Either they are too small (cub) running like a bat outta hell the minute I see them or too far away (600+ yards) and bail before I get close enough to shoot. A problem Bear would be a bonus tag. I'm game if a depredation permit is provided. PM me
Thx

Post by: PNWBearHunter on February 05, 2015, 02:45:15 PM: From what it sounds like, with so many different people after this Bear, I don't see anyone putting a tag on it. Maybe someone will get lucky. My bet is that is bypasses the area or goes nocturnal until the season is over. Then it will come back.
