Donating YT 4000 Club Member | Bears, bears and more bears! This was not far from my house. Last week, we had 3 bear sightings in our neighborhood along the trails. Makes you nervous to take the pups out for any exercise. Video Landing Page - Atlanta News, Weather, Traffic, and Sports | FOX 5

| WOW! I would be a bit concerned, too if bears were on the loose near us. Fox and possums and hawks are bad enough for this farm girl. |

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | Black bears normally shy away from humans. The exception is a mother bear if she feels her cubs are threatened. A barking dog could certainly be seen as a threat. A couple of years back, the DNR set up traps in our neighborhood and relocated 2 bears. This year there have been multiple sightings of different family groups. A cool thing they noted was that bears normally have no more than 2 cubs, but this year triplet and even Quads have been sighted.
