Field Notes

Habitat:

This one lives in a wildlife park, there are still black bear roaming the scrub oak areas near the coast, there are bear crossing signs.

Notes:

I have lived in Florida for many years and have never heard of a Florida Black bear attacking anyone. I have never seen one hiking, but have seen signs of them. Your more likely to see a panther than a bear.
