  1. I’ve had to scare bears off my deck two times! One was so hungry he clawed the screens and upturned the cat house. I called my neighbor Mr. Brown and he came in his pjs to help me at 11 p.m. He said by the tracks it was a juvenile male. We don’t keep cat food on the deck anymore or put beef stew in the crock pot overnight. The other bear I scared off with a wooden spoon and a good old fashioned country mama holler. Stay safe Ryan. 🐻🙏

      1. Yeah, probably more likely to see one at night and in the early morning like our neighbor did. It will be 13 years living out here on August 31st. I have never seen a bear coming through, but we have had many warnings. We have had lots of mountain lion warnings too. My friend and I saw what we were pretty sure was a mountain lion one afternoon while mountain biking the single track trails in the wilds out here. It was sneaking up on a guy walking his dogs. The dogs were freaking out and the guy kept looking back and he got out of there quick. It’s like Nat Geo out here! 🙂 God bless!

      2. That’s cool! It’s rare that a moose comes down out of the mountains. My wife grew up in Anchorage, AK and they had big moose in their yard all the time. Grizzlies and wolves running around in the woods near their house too!

      3. Yeah, I just heard the coyotes yippin’ and howlin’ the other night. We just saw a pretty orange fox a few months ago too. Lots of people lose their little dogs and cats out here. It’s always crazy to hear the coyotes all converge on something. They all go nuts, you hear a squeal, then it goes dead quiet as they eat. 😊

  2. Our area isn’t really known for black bears, but we do have a few on our state! Mostly males passing through. Stay safe! I actually saw one about 20 years ago. There were a few people who spotted it, as well. It was the talk of the town!🙏

  3. I said a prayer that God protects all of you and your neighbors from the bear and cougar! It would be pretty exciting seeing it roam out in the open space, but I do hope it wonders back where it came from, maybe the foothills. I know you will be very careful, but as your Mom I will say it anyway….”Be Careful!” Ha. Your neighborhood website is pretty cool to have!

    1. Thanks Mom! We are very diligent about protecting the kids. I’m not letting them ride bikes through the open space right now. The grasses and weeds are just too tall and the bear or mountain lion could hide in there. They are supposed to mow it and spray the weeds soon. Love ya!
