But lately, in our area in NE Ohio where we live (in houses and residential areas) we have been having many sightings of black bear roaming around. We had one right outside where I work about a month ago.

Droughts always bring the bears down. We were sitting on the deck one night and my friend said, I think theres a bear watching us. At first I didn't see him but once my eyes adjusted there he was not 30ft away behind a large rock. Boy did we move fast. The next day we heard he had to be destroyed as he ripped open someones tent. Fortunately no one was hurt.JOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05658713978278693047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822169260430560826.post-77736347570544368912012-07-31T19:31:42.576-07:002012-07-31T19:31:42.576-07:00Nope, can't beat that bear story.

We often saw them as we came back to our cabin after work.

Not even toothpaste in the tent.<br /><br />The next morning, needless to say, the scuttlebutt around the campground was the bear and its nighttime meanderings. No one was hurt, but I think it got into a few peoples' food.
