A black bear was caught on video climbing into a den for hibernation season at Yellowstone National Park. In the video, the bear nestles into its den, scooping dirt and grass to help cushion its hibernation place.
LUNENBURG COUNTY, Va. – A Virginia man died after a hunting incident with a bear.
On Dec. 9, the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources (DWR) was notified of an incident in Lunenburg County, Virginia.
A group of hunters had tracked a bear up into a tree and retreated from the base of the tree before shooting the bear, the DWR said.
One hunter in the group, a 58-year-old man named Lester C. Harvey, was standing roughly 10 feet from the tree where the bear was shot, the DWR said.
