It was quite thrilling to see them as they ran across my path, fortunately not near enough for a scare. Those little cubs are so adorable!

Actually I kept seeing moose crossing signs in that stretch of road, have always wanted to one of those in the wild too.

With me. So far no moose or bears here in our Rockies outings. Congrats 🤗

we had 2 adults and 3 young cubs in our yard last spring, everyday for about 2 weeks... they destroyed my bee hives, bird feeders, chicken fence, ate the chicken feed, etc...
.
this year I have 7000 volt electric fence around the chickens and bees... the bears tested it for a day or two and I haven't seen them since (in my yard)
it's difficult not to see/run into bears around here
