Since the pandemic bears seem to have taken to roaming Saint Louis suburbs.
Bear of 2020, Bruno, seventeen miles away.
Bear of 2021, Brentwood Bear, twenty miles away.
However, there seemed to be no bears in 2022 or 2023, at least not reported here, unless you count Ben the escape artist bear at the zoo.
Just this morning I thought, “Where are the bears,” and then on a post about a bear visitation to the recent summer camp hosted by the former lead singer of Barenaked Ladies, I saw this:
So there you are, Bear of 2024, Ballwin Bear,TEN miles away.

Just wait, at some point they’ll find your peanuts and corn and you’ll get the coolest/most-terrifying suburban-backyard-wildlife-camera footage *ever*…
KC – or it might capture them eating something else, like a loved one!
KC – I know that comment is weird, but evidently there is spam about eating children and pets.
Fascinating spam. However, I hope Gary is not eaten on-camera by a roaming St. Louis bear.
KC -ooh, like that Werner Herzog movie.
