A few years ago a bear came to visit my bird feeder, which is common in the summer.

Even though it was dark, I could tell there was something wrong with this bear.
It had a limp.

So I took some pictures outside my dining room window.
After looking at them, I could clearly see this poor bear was missing a foot!

I don't know how it happened, since they don't trap bears here.
But it could still run away quickly when I accidentally scared it!

Whoa, thats pretty neat! Good for the bear for living on three legs. In mother nature, that can't be easy.

Kudos!

Patrick, I love that you share your animal adventures with us. Thank you. What wonderful wildlife you have living around you. What we see as a disability, to many are not handicaps at all just simply a part of life.

poor thing!!! he sure looks happy and healthy though :) Sadly, even if trapping isnt allowed and not done, i wouldnt be suprised if someone set a tray anyway... sicko's! what a lucky bear he didnt die from infection or something else.
