Quote: As shown in the photos (and witnessed firsthand many, many times by me), the Black Bears of this area (Southwestern Sierra Nevada foothills) make short work of telephone poles and oaks of several times that diameter. They can just skitter up those suckers, too. The last known (confirmed) Grizzly in these parts was shot dead in August of 1922. The California Grizzly once ranged throughout the state. Okay, they weren't quite as large as pictured here. They are all gone now, some ended up like this: California Grizz: Yo Bears Last Grizz in Orange County: O C Grizz Western Grizz: Grizz West |
