Weird.
Yesterday, the blog I
posted was about a bear some dude here in Montana found injured on a highway. After posting my blog, I drove to Butte to
teach a continuing education class for electricians. During my early evening drive home, while negotiating
one of the back-to-back curves along I-15 where the highway trickles through the
dense mountains between Butte and Helena, I spotted a black bear just sitting
there on a mountainside immediately off the highway below a strand of
jade-colored pines.
Not long after arriving
home, I picked up the newspaper and found an article about grizzly bears that
have been pushing their territory onto the plains on the eastern side of the
Front Range of the Rockies. Some of the
bears were recently involved in killing cattle near Dupuyer, Montana.
Apparently the “something’s
afoot” around these parts applies to bears.

I wonder if the wildfires pushed the bears towards the plains.
ReplyDeleteI would guess that is the case in some areas.
