Bear Scent Marking Tree - Massachusetts

 


Video 2 -This  Black  Bear Scent marking tree with ritual trail passing at its base are good examples showing  different black bear age groups that use the same marking tree throughout the year. The camera trap watching this tree was triggered forty-two times in 2024. The compilation shows  a good age mix of bears  scent marking  on the same tree. Most visits occurred between May and August. Bears will scent mark all year long with the highest activity  typically during the mating season.

This is the second of three videos sharing my experiences learning about “ Bear Marking Trees” in Massachusetts

I’ll share the third video next week
