Title: Oregon Bears
Post by: Yelper Guy on November 06, 2019, 09:11:27 AM: My sisters friend sent a trail cam pic of these bears.
I think it's a sow & boar. I though once breeding was over they went there separate ways.
I also thought they bred in late august or early September.
Is this a pair of lovebirds just chillin until the snow flies?
That boar has a really pretty chocolate coat, and a big noggin!

I'm no expert at field judging bears by any means. Like probably the exact opposite of that, but maybe it's possible that's a big ol' sow and an older cub hanging together still?

I think the first is the big chocolate, and some shenanigans between a pair.
