My wife e-mailed me from work this morning to tell me about this...
http://www.saanichpolice.ca/crimewatch/media/bear_necessities.html
It's only about 5 mins from my house by car so I set off to see if I could find any tracks or signs !
Here is the road...
The roads backs onto a park so I figured that's where I'd look !
I have a sheath being made for my Swamp Warden but couldn't wait to take it out so I improvised one for now...
I followed the water heading to where I thought would be a likely spot to find tracks !
I eventually came out onto the mud flats at the inlet, there were plenty of Deer tracks and stuff like this to entice a hungry bear....
Sadly I found no sign of any bears so I decided to follow some other tracks instead.
Firstly I followed some rabbit tracks, I lost them for a while and just when I was ready to give up I spotted the little fella...
Here is the pic cropped !
I then followed some deer tracks and they led me to this deers rest stop...
A close look reveals the deers fur...
