It’s that time again. So glad we always tell our guest to lock their car doors all year long. These bears are SMART and have successfully entered hundreds of vehicles.

Some don’t believe us. Have you caught a bear trying to get to that bag of chips between your two front seats?

Help us increase awareness for bear safety and save our guests thousands in damage to their car’s interior. Next thing you know they’ll be learning how to drive.

Am I dreaming or are these real berries?

Yesterday Ella cut choke cherry branches and took them to the cubs in the Cubbie enclosure.

PSA: Black Bears are beautiful creatures that hang out all over the Smokies. They're out with spring cubs and some still have their fall babies with them too. They're cute and cuddly looking from a distance.
I know it makes you want to stop your cars and get out for best photo ops.
It's those rounded ears. Sneaky, Mother Nature.
Here's your up close look. More like a werewolf when they're determined. They will maul your face off!
Remember, a fed bear is a dead bear. Keep your distance. Enjoy our mountains, but respect them.

Now is the time!

Family bonds remain strong right up to the day of family breakup. In the days before family breakup, they play together, groom each other, sleep together, and suckle. Like human youngsters, yearling bears sleep very soundly, trusting their safety to the alertness of their mother.
Family breakup happens suddenly during mating season in May or June when the mother is nearly ready to mate.

The sudden presence of a male can precipitate family breakup. At first, the mother is torn between her yearlings and the persistent male, but within a day after family breakup, she will chase her yearlings away whenever she encounters them.

Littermates also separate from each other. Each settles in a separate area within its mother’s territory. The mother then avoids those areas, giving the yearlings nearly exclusive feeding rights.
Without their mothers, the yearlings are initially skittish, spending long periods up trees. They become covered with ticks. By the end of the summer, they develop into confident little bears.

Most sons voluntarily leave within a couple years after family breakup. Most daughters eventually establish territories in or near their mother’s territory.

In Southern Appalachia, highways fracture the habitat of bears, elk, deer and other wildlife. Locals are pushing to make roads safer for animals and drivers.

Yesterday the 21st of March was a nice sunny warm for March day. We still have lots of snow. Ella went to check on 31 year old Yogi. He was enjoying the sunshine. Ella offered him treats but he did not want. Why is Yogi a permanent resident at Bear With Us? Learn more here: www.bearwithus.org > Bear Residents.
