The Bear --- not Da Bear!!

On Monday June 6th, a bear - a real life growling, breathing, eating bear was seen within miles of my cousin Sally's house!!!  They even tranquilized it and it kept on running!

Tuesday morning Tiara and I were in McDonald's for breakfast and it was the talk of the town, because the bear had been tracked to the woods behind the McDonald's!!  YIKES!

Here's an article about The Bear!!


 Washington Fish and Wildlife Department agents have once again left a trap baited with tasty goodies in hopes of snaring a young black bear near Port Orchard.

Wildlife Sgt. Ted Jackson says officers tracked the bear Tuesday to make sure it didn't return to the area where it was seen Monday near three South Kitsap schools.
The bear withstood a tranquilizer dart Monday and resisted a trap Monday night baited with doughnuts, marshmallows and maple syrup.

On Tuesday morning, the bear was seen moving through residential yards one to two miles east of the trap. The Kitsap Sun says one resident told Jackson the bear had been eating from outdoor bird feeders. The newspaper says the trap was moved closer to that area where the animal has been seen multiple times.
