More Bears...

The Nelson County Times yesterday had an article about the increase in the bear population in Central Virginia. So now what? There was no mention of how the bear population would be controlled, only advice about what to do in the event that you see a bear. Here are a few tips:

- do not make any sudden moves
- do not appear as if you are going to eat or take away the bear's food
- do not corner the bear
- do not approach any bear cubs

Personally I'm just going to play dead. Hopefully the bear will just pick up his picnic basket and walk away.
