If you see a bear or bear den, stay calm and leave it alone, urge biologists in NC Wildlife Resources Commission.
In the coldest months of the year, the black bears in the northern Carolina look for a dens to keep warm – but in doing so, they can get closer to humans.
According to NC wildlife, bears look for shelter between December and April, make dens in rock and tree cavities, in brush piles, excavations under fallen trees, in ground nests and even under the decks and crawspaces of houses.
Humans can safely co -existence with bear
If you see a bear den under your deck, shed, or crawlspace, stay calm, leave the area and call the NC Wildlife Helpline 866-318-2401 or contact your local district wildlife biologist for further guidance.
According to the neck wildlife, in most cases the owners of the house can safely be co-existence with the bear until it leaves the den in the spring.
Nekan Wildlife said it is especially important to give enough space to the bear’s dens, as a black bear mother, who is troubled by a human or pet, left her cubs.
“We have experienced an upper in the bear under homes and decks in the last 10 years, as well as highlight dogs harassing the bear in Dense,” said Cholon Olfattel, a bear specialist at NC Wildlife, said.
Olfenbetail explained that bears in Dense would not disturb humans because they “are only interested in getting their winter comfort or, if it is a woman, take care of her cubs.”

“Bear gave birth in early January, when the owners of the house were alert to the sound of cubs crying under their deck,” said NC Wildlife’s bearwiz coordinator Ashley Hobbes said. “After talking with the owners of the house and inspecting the Dane site, we recommended that the best course of action was to limit disturbances around the deck area until the bear comes out with its cub in the spring. This will avoid harassing the woman and probably orphans the cub. ,
Hobbes also developed a plan to closure the space under the deck to the owners of the house. Once the bears and other wildlife emptied the bear to prevent future access.
Darshan of black bear increases this spring
According to officials, the bear may have more visible vision in spring as black bears leave their dens.
During the mating season, the male bears are particularly active, and many visions were reported at Johnson County in the last June.
According to a post by NC Wildlife, “bears are not aggressive by nature.” “Because it is the season of sexual intercourse, young men are being thrown out by their mothers and going out on their own to establish new areas and find a woman. They often do not know where they are going and sometimes end up in urban areas. ,
If you see a bear in an urban area, it is just passing through, wildlife officials say. Explain about the bear and do not harm it.
If you see a bear cub alone, it is probably waiting for your mother. If you suspect that the bear has been left, you can pay attention to the location and leave the NC Wildlife Helpline.
Never contact the bear or try to feed it.
