Stumbled onto a bear den

Attachment 29801Out scouting today when I found this neat bears den. I checked it out to make sure no one was home before I got any closer.

Attachment 29802They were not in so I went in to check it out. I stuck my hand inside to snap a picture of the inside and I dropped my camera inside the den. It rolled inside.

Attachment 29803Since I had to crawl in to get my camera I took this picture while inside. It had moss and dried grass in one corner, bones in the middle. Could tell it was recently used by bears. There were tracks outside near the den opening.

Pretty cool indeed. What were the bones from?

Very cool for sure ! That is something that has always stumped me - for all of the bush wandering I have done, I have never found a bear den.

The bones looked like bear or moose.

Imagine the centuries of bears that have been reared in that den?

Would be a great place to put a camera up.
