How Big Do Massachusetts Bears Get - Beaver Lodges and Trail Cameras

 

It was a beautiful morning to be out scouting Spring prospects for camera trapping locations. It has been years since setting any trail cameras in this area, the    “ SAFE” ice provided opportunity to really scout the back of the swamp. Beavers are still using the pond and have built a bank lodge in an ideal location to set camera traps. I will explain  in the video. https://youtu.be/lnKFxVMD1z0

This time of year, safe ice conditions give opportunity to get into swampy areas that are typically a challenge to reach any other time of year. I will use the ice to scout other locations next week.

Thank You all that attended my bear presentation at the Rutland MA  library yesterday. There was a good turnout with an interactive audience asking lots of  good questions. The video clip  “ How Big Do Massachusetts Bears Get” sparked interest in guessing bears’ weight. Hard to believe bears get that big in MA. https://youtu.be/sMlfKn1U59A
