Happy National Black Bear Day!

If you're headed to the North Carolina Black Bear Festival in Plymouth, be sure to talk to the folks from @NCWildlife about ways you can peacefully coexist with black bears in your area. #bebearwise

Bears are always hungry and on the lookout for anything that’s good to eat. It only takes a minute for an enterprising bear to make off with your picnic lunch, pet food or barbecue fixings – so don’t leave them outside unattended. https://t.co/QwjVm2yFuX

Mother bears are protective of their cubs. If you see bear cubs alone, chances are mother bear is nearby, waiting for you to leave. Don't linger; leave the area right away so mother bear feels it's safe to return. https://t.co/s8plOe1TPa

What's on a bear's menu? Bears are attracted to anything that smells. To keep bears wild, keep food and garbage securely out of their sight, smell and reach. Read more: https://t.co/QwjVm2yFuX

#tws_oitf camp out in Pisgah NF last night thanks to visit by @grayvireo & dogs (both 🐕 & 🌭)/coffee/beer by @hillard_liz. @TWS_OitF may have a new mascot dog! We need to have more of these! More pics to come

[C @avoiding_twitt]

@wild_ecology I am not an expert...I didn't notice it until I saw the pic. And yes, such beautiful turtles. 30 minutes later, I rescued a painted that was trying to cross the 4 lane divided highway.

[C @avoiding_twitt]

While I am biased in my career towards furry critters, I do love turtles. We found a pair of spotted turtles while checking remote cameras in eastern NC.

[C @avoiding_twitt]

@jefethebird @wild_ecology just emailed you!!!

[C @avoiding_twitt]

@wild_ecology Not by us! Will be asking some of the local biologists. Its a spot though I would not expect anyone sampling. Right by a 4 lane divided highway w/private agr. land all around.

@grayvireo Did you hear that you can get a free donut every day for the rest of 2021 if you show your Covid vaccination card?!?!?!

[C @avoiding_twitt]

@DavidEdmundsVT Technique I learned in this position...not many people know about it, but it was developed in the 1950s.

[C @avoiding_twitt]

State fur sale to examine muskrat pelts to determine age & sex ratio of harvest, which helps monitor the population. Do you know which is a juvenile & which is the adult?

Had to work this Spring Equinox weekend, but weather was beautiful. Today, I deployed an Eastern Spotted Skunk hair tube, developed by @ErbLiesl & her students. 🤞for a spotted & hair #spottedskunk #spottedskunks
