Moderators SeaDawg Posted November 4, 2023 Author Moderators Share Posted November 4, 2023 Our camping property is a forest conservation area, by our choice. one year, we awoke to what sounded like short, intermittent bursts of hail, first night back, in months. It wasn’t. There was a squirrel nest in a tree above us. We were "invading " their space. As soon as they figured out we were harmless, the barrage of nuts quit. The creatures were all here first. We see the bears often, usually in the distance, but they want nothing to do with us. A raised voice, or a bark from my 9 pound dog sends them packing. Keep a clean campsite. Our permanent neighbors do same. Put food sources out of sight and scent. At public campgrounds, make sure everything attractive is packed away, and all doors and windows are closed and locked. You have no idea of previous occupants. Bear, and other creatures, can learn that that campsites are an easy "foodsource". None of us want that. They become at risk, if they become accustomed to human food and contact. They'll eventually "invade" a human space,,and become subject to relocation or demise. Please do your best to let wild life continue to he wild,,and respect their space. We just share it with them, at their pleasure. 5 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Florida and Western North Carolina, or wherever the truck goes.... 400 watts solar.

John Dorrer Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Everytime we are in Yellowstone it is amazing the amount of stupidity we see.

It's a given that there are people who don't use good sense but the number of people blatantly disregarding the signage and guidelines is a little shocking. 1 Joe and Mindy ▪️ 2019 Legacy Elite II ▪️ Hull 457 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
