Last week, on my way home from work, I got off an Exit, and was on the ramp to another road. To my left was a triangle of trees, surrounded by roads. Right next to the ramp I was on, was a little baby black bear. I didn't see the mother, and there was no way he could get back to the woods without crossing a road. He was the cutest little thing. I didn't want him to get hurt, so when I got home, I called the state police, and they said the bear had already been reported. I hope the little fellow is OK.

God bless you for reporting it. I hope someone did something. I'd probably have stopped and helped it cross the road.

I thought about that, but although I didn't see the mother, I wasn't keen on trying to help her cub, and meeting her head on.
I only had one pair of underwear that day........

I can see it. One of life's "bleachable" moments.

Catching up on this thread and noticed no one brought up:

I had some of these in my storage shed and garage. It's the best solution I found. Rodent has to work to get to the bait and death is instant. They make a non-wifi version but you have to check that or you could end up with.... shall we say, a rodent that is past it's prime.

Brazilnut Bjorn is a girl, and she had two darling little raccoon kits this year. They were born later than Rusty's two kits. The size difference is incredible.

So excited to be a great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandmother again!

A wildlife crossing bridge like that has been talked about for I-65, between Louisville and Mammoth Cave.
