Yet another bear thread from me lol. Anyways, I had big plans earlier in the year to get out of my local stomping grounds to hopefully go track down a bear in parts unknown to me. Life happens so I've been out a few times in my local rural area (aka I can walk there, live rural) early in the season, but didn't find much for sign. One area had some scat, but nothing that screamed lots of bear here. So I figured I'd go poke around a few more times before the end of the month. So here I am washing dishes, and a bear walks out in a field about 160 meters out and he's off into another bush in no time. Faster than a slow walk, but not like he's got places to be kinda speed. Decent, not a runt and definitely not a monster but I'd take it for my first bear. I've never shot a bear, so I don't know their mannerisms or if they behave like deer, in a sense like routines and travel or whatever.
The odd thing was, it's one of the hottest days we've had in a couple weeks, about +25 and sunny, blue skies. Is this not odd that it's out tramping around at 12:30? I would never think to even look for bear in mid day, so shows what I know I guess.
But the one thing I'd like to know is if they're creatures of habit like deer, in the sense that if you see them out and about in a certain area, that it's likely part of their stomping ground, and they'll be back around? I realize that nobody can read a bears mind, but I'm curious if I can read into something here. Any thoughts appreciated.
