A cougar with her 3 cubs - that's pretty special, BPG! Each time you put up something amazing and I think you've hit the top, you do it again with something even better. I think you'll surprise us with a wolverine one of these days. With your skill and luck, maybe even a sasquatch. Bravo!

Thanks for the kind words.

By now shouldn't the bear have checked into Motel Bruin, Extended Stay wing?

I'm also, somewhat surprised that bears are still roaming around here

I think in the PNW that bears semi-hibernate. I find their tracks every month of the year. Less so in winter, of course, but a spell of nice weather will often bring a bear out, I assume to forage, perhaps on cambium later in the winter when everything else is good and buried. |

From a WDFW bear biologist...
"Sometimes larger males move around a bit in late fall or bears that live close to people that have keyed in on garbage also stay out of the den longer"

BPG - WOW! that video of the Cougar mom and her kittens/cubs is incredible!! One of my favorites of yours (of which you have so many). I was surprised to see 3 youngsters, but after looking it up on westernwildlife.org I learned that they will generally give birth to 1 to 4 kittens, most commonly 2-3.
That is a very impressive bull too! I never get tired of seeing them and pics/videos - always so impressive!
Thanks for your efforts to film and post these great scenes! |
