Green Turtle Pond Bear attacking Deer footage!!!

I live up in WM & bear are a part of our lives. You have to be smarter than the average bear or else they will get your garbage, bird feeder, pets & you or anything else they want.

Had a pair of cubs destroy a section of my wooden fence just to get to a barrel of recycled plastic bottles. Came home to a broken fence & chewed up plastic all over my property. Looked like they had a fun day but I do not blame them, I blame myself for letting it happen.

That video explains why in the past 11 years I have only seen a handful of deer in the area but bears daily. The numbers have dropped considerably this year & I question whether we really need a hunt again.

The bad actors are the ones who live in the green areas around homes thus are not subject to hunting. The good bears are the ones who fend for themselves & do not look for handouts...seems to me like we just need to clean up the bad actors not the self sufficient bears as in the video. The bad characteristics gene pools are getting stronger as a result.

The video is tough to watch, nature is brutal.

From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

It's the Circle of Life!
