Bears live primarily in the forest and they have a remarkable way of adapting to people moving in to their territory. Black bears eat berries, nuts, tubers, roots, honey, worms, buds, leaves, fruit, twigs, grubs, fish, insects, and small mammals. In the spring, black bears even eat the inside layer of young trees. They must eat between 11 and 18 pounds of food each day to stay healthy. Black bears hibernate during the winter months.
Water should be boiled for at least 3 to 5 minutes to sanitize it. Some agencies recommend boiling for 10 minutes just to be safe. If you live at high altitudes, add a minute for every 1000 feet above sea level.
The water should be salty like sea water (in fact you can use clean sea water if you have it). Bring the water to a rapid boil. 2 Lower the lobsters into the pot: Grasp the lobster by the body and lower it upside down and head first into the boiling water. Continue to add the live lobsters to the pot in this manner. Cover the pot. 3 Boil lobsters for 12 to 20 min, depending on size: Note the time at which the water comes to a boil again.
