Day We had just turned in for the second evening of our 7-day Yosemite backpack; it was a few minutes after 9:00pm, and we had been having a good conversation around the dying fire. About five minutes after zipping up our sleeping bags, I thought I heard ‘footsteps’ passing by our tent. Since there were 11 others in our group, I didn’t think too much of it; until we heard the rattle and snapping of dead branches on a tree some distance beyond our tent. We both knew instantly that what we were hearing was our bear-bag being raided. I yelled “BEAR!” and called out to the group leader to alert him. We then threw our shoes and jackets back on and piled out to see what was going on. Sure enough, a sow black bear was putting on a ‘how-to’ for her two cubs – and us. This bear bag was hung absolutely by the book; 20 feet up and 8 or so feet out on a live, strong, but thin-at-the-tip branch. With the cubs watching, she first tried to shake the branch. When that didn’t work, she tried to stretch out to reach, but it was too far out and the many dead branches were in the way. Next, she tried to bite off the branch. Finally, she climbed up to the branch above and dropped down onto the gnawed branch, breaking it off at the point she had chewed. She caught herself right away, and lead the cubs down to the ground for a snack. It took her less time to take it down than it did for me to put it up!

Yosemite Reports Successful Effort to 'Keep Bears Wild' Leave out a bag of Fritos, and expect a 3 a.m. wake-up call By Jen Mattson , September 13, 2000 You may think bears are wild creatures. But they've been getting more and more sophisticated in recent years, adding your potato salad and beef jerky to their list of favorite appetizers. That's because some of them frequent the greatest buffet of all: California's Yosemite National Park, home to a restaurant, grocery store, and millions of snacking campers per year. But now, thanks to a three-year "Keep Bears Wild" public awareness campaign, park officials say the problem is abating. Incidents (bear interactions with people, excluding sightings) have greatly decreased. From 1998, when 1,600 occurred, they fell to 760 in 1999 and to 379 as of mid-August this year, according to Scott Gediman, Chief of Media and External Relations for Yosemite. That's good news for visitors who want to wander the park's 800 miles of trails, meandering through 761,266 acres, 93 percent of which are wilderness. Yosemite boasts magnificent waterfalls, lush meadows, and forests that seem to reach the sky, even hundreds of Giant Sequoias, the largest living things in the world.

Yosemite boasts magnificent waterfalls, lush meadows, and forests that seem to reach the sky, even hundreds of Giant Sequoias, the largest living things in the world. The black bears (black, brown, cinnamon, or blond in color) making their home in that lush territory have often been lured toward people because many campers store food improperly. Reversing that habit, and thereby encouraging bears to return to natural food sources, is the goal of "Keep Bears Wild," started in 1998 with a renewing yearly congressional appropriation of $500,000, sponsored by Rep. Henry Waxman, D-CA.

It's true what they say...a picture IS worth a thousand words! Sunshine Bear had a bit more nerve than I did though...but then he hadn't seen the movie "Jurassic Park"! Of course he didn't find out until afterwards that Mr. Rex here is a meat-eater! Lucky for him he had just had a big snack and wasn't the least bit hungry at the time! Me? I prefer my adventures a bit tamer than Sunshine... I don't like the idea of being a meal for whatever I am riding. Shortly after taking the picture of Sunshine, Mr. Rex decided that perhaps he could do with a little snack afterall. Good thing us bears are fast runners! By the time we got away from him, we were soooo hot and tired that a nice swim sounded really great! That's when I met my new friend...a non-bear-eating dolphin! All of that time I spent swimming at the Idol Pool really paid off! Sunshine thought he was a bit out of shape (hadn't been swimming in ages) and didn't want to risk another ride but I had a great time!

What To Do Accomplishments Articles Links ... Start Over Our Mission The summer of 2001 is well remembered in the small village of Talkeetna, Alaska. Grizzly and Black bears had become habituated to finding food in our dumpsters and garbage cans. Eventually six bears were shot. As a reaction to the conflicts between people and bears, local residents gathered one November night and a grassroots effort was born. We called ourselves the Bear Necessities Coalition - Keeping Bears Wild and People Safe. Our mission has been to work, through education and action, to promote bear aware human behavior in order to minimize conflict between people and bears. We recognized that local support was essential to achieving our goals, so we began developing rapport with residents, our Community Council, the Chamber of Commerce, the Dept. of Fish and Game, the Borough, the National Park Service, and the staff of our radio station and of the local newspaper. We found common ground within diverse interests in the community; no one wanted bears killed because of improper garbage and food storage. Our efforts continue by partnering with local groups and agencies to expand educational endeavors, planning to publish a children's bear awareness book/CD, and increasing the numbers of bear- proof garbage cans. The methods we have employed and the lessons we are learning are applicable to many other communities that are facing similar challenges. Please join our grassroots effort by taking action in your community.

All during this time, as per Park policy, we had been harassing the bear by yelling, blowing whistles, banging pots and pans, throwing rocks, etc.. We need not have bothered; she paid us no mind whatsoever. We finally returned to our tents to nervously wait out the rest of the raid. For the next couple of hours, she and the cubs wandered back and forth between our site and two sites on the other side of the stream. Needless to say, not a whole lot of sleeping was done until they left.
