Re: Dangerous Wildlife in Wyoming

Use to have some bears around my place some years ago , the dogs would go nuts at night barking , so that kept them away from the house a little . I worked nights then an when I would get home at 3 am I would go down as start my irrigator .i would go down to wear the pump was sit there for a min or two, then when I got out of the truck I had this little baseball bat I carried with an would pound on the irrigation pipe an make some noise so if there was a bear around he would know wear I was . I pulled water out of a slew an every now an then they liked to go for a swim in it . it’s been my experience that if you don’t scare or startle them they will run from you , but that don’t mean I would walk around in the woods without a gun . well later on that year the bear thought he would have some fun in my corn field , so he would roll around in one spot knocking down the corn then move to another an do the same thing , all toll that sucker messed up about 2 acres. Next year I had beans an I counter 9 dear in the field one night eating my beans. Well later that year my son an dad wear hunting an my son got 2 of them , shot at 4 got 2 an nicked 1 other never did find him . funny part was he was sitting in the house all day, came out to see me in the barn about 5 ,an I told him to go sit in the tall grass an wait , I think he was there for 10 min before I heard all the shooting. He never had it so easy.
