While looking at my back yard I snapped a picture of a black bear, framed with wood deck rails, as he glanced up at me.

Black bears are busy looking for food
“Black bears (Ursus americanus) are found throughout both the foothills and forests of Idaho. Between 20,000 and 30,000 black bears roam these wild lands. These bears share space with a human population that is expected to grow by more than 15 percent during the next 10 years. This means that human/bear encounters will continue and likely increase.”
