How would you feel if the bear was at your house?

We don't have bears or coyotes wandering around here, although there
have been a couple of people reporting "small bears" in the woods around
their houses...but no verification.

Oh, and out at the national park, the people were in the bears' house.

On our hikes near the Shenandoah, we encounter all sorts of critters,
and have seen what may be bears (they tend to stay off the trails), and
there have even been reports of mountain lions (again, unverified), but
there is no question there are packs of feral dogs out there, which is
why we carry sidearms.

Wow, Maryland doesn't have feral pigs OR coyotes! I wonder how they know
to stay out of that particular state?



"Here" means my little neighborhood, moron. I haven't seen any wild pigs
or coyotes in my yard or on my street in the years we have lived here.


Before you call someone a moron, you should look at a map of the range
of both feral pigs and coyotes. And just because you don't see something
doesn't mean it isn't there, moron.


I have wildlife cameras in the yard no coyotes no bears no hogs

They must avoid your land and your land only, how do you manage that?
Odd that you have that you have plenty of their PREY in your yard but
they stay away.....

I looked at the DNR web site. The coyotes are in western Md, Bears
too.

As I said before 18 and 19th century hunters killed all of them in the
east. They have not found their way back.


They are there now. Coyotes are very far east, in western NY they are
prolific now, a real pain. Look at these maps. They are everywhere in
the continental U.S. except Harry's yard.

The apex predators here seem to be hawks. There's been no sighting of
feral pigs or coyotes right around here, despite what your simplistic
web searches tell you. I'm not saying there never have been pigs that
escaped from farms in this county and went wild, but we've never seen
any, and neither have our neighbors.

In addition to the wildlife cameras, we also have motion controlled
floodlights illuminating the side and back yards. When they click on
late at night, we sometimes take a peek. Just the usual suspects, never
pigs or coyotes.

Not to worry, he'll tell YOU that it is!!! I hear he's a master at

The Baltimore/Washington corridor is a pretty good barrier to keep
western wildlife out of Southern Md and there are still enough
rednecks down there to take out the few that trickle through.
If some did manage to walk across the Morgantown Bridge, I imagine
they might be able to establish a foot hold but the whole place is
still fairly well developed in a small farm/big yard sort of way.
It is so densely populated that you can't hunt deer with a rifle in
any of the So Md counties.


Calvert County has a population density of 413 persons per square mile.

St Mary's County has a population density of 291 persons per square mile.

Fairfax County, Va., has a population density of 2,738 persons per
square mile.

Lee County, FL, where you live, has a population density of 769 persons
per square mile. Your county is far more developed than ours.

In other words, the population density here is about half what it is
where you live, so your area is populated about twice as densely
as Calvert County, and nearly three times as densely populated at St.
Mary's County.

Firearms hunting for deer is allowed in Calvert and St. Mary's Counties.

My guess is that when PsychoSnotty attempts a home invasion, he won't
try coming through the front door.
