Well after neighbors and others told a neighbor lady to take her birdfeeder down because of bears. She said no.

Well a friend of mine does his daily walks on a tarred walking trail past her house. You guessed it, a sow and two cubs came to the feeder and my friend was charged by the bear with no time for him to react. The bear swatted him once, he went flying 10 feet in the air with multiple ribs broken and injured hip. 4 years later now he is still sore.

The sheriff and MN DNR had to step in and make the lady quit feeding. The bears moved back into the woods where they belong. Those who feed bears contribute to incidents like I mention.
