Bears aren't carnivores, so what happened to that goat?

[marta]

Nope they're omnivores. 90% of their diet is vegetarian but the other 10% anything goes... including goats.

[Sangye]

Oh wow, I didn't know that! Ack! Poor goat.

[marta]

Not to worry Sangye, he (the goat) might be winter kill. Bears are opportunists to the highest degree. They'll eat anything. ANYTHING. That's why we have these 'bear proof' garbage cans in Jasper (they actually have them displayed at the Smithsonian) to keep the bears out of the campgrounds and the townsite. The number of human/bear encounters dropped significantly the very next season after they implemented those garbage bins. So the bear in the picture might just be cleaning up the mess left over from winter's fury.

The baby bunnies are getting pretty big! They don't look as fragile anymore, and I'm not worried about a hawk nabbing them. They sure are fun to watch. We're having a heatwave so I put out a bowl of water for all the critters who visit my yard. This morning one of the bunnies dipped her foot in it and then hopped up in the air. It was hilarious. I watered the weeds in the yard the past couple days so they'd survive and feed the bunnies. I never thought I'd do such a thing, but love makes you do crazy things.

We had two rabbits that were either sparring or playing with each other tonight. looked like those old cartoon of kangaroos boxing each other. Usually they just ignore each other but love to get under the bird feeders and eat fallen corn and other seeds.

LOL Sweet.
