RE nytracker's COMMENT AND ABOUT SEEING MORE BEARS, I WAS VISITING WITH A TEXAS WILDLIFE OFFICER THE OTHER DAY, AND THERE ARE MORE AND MORE BEARS MOVING INTO VAL VERDE, EDWARDS AND SURROUNDING COUNTIES (THEY COME OUT OF THE MONTERREY MOUNTAINS IN MEXICO JUST OVER THE BORDER FROM DEL RIO, TEXAS). INSTEAD OF BEING JUST THE OCCASSIONAL VISITOR NOW THEY SEEM TO BE MOVING IN. ILLEGAL TO SHOOT THEM AND SOME BIG BOARS GO 350 - 400 lbs. A BEAR EVEN HALF THAT SIZE CAN KILL YOU. THEY WILL DESTROY YOUR DEER FEEDERS AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS CALL THE GAME WARDENS AND HOPE THEY CAN CATCH AND RELOCATE.

"ADAPT OR DIE". I USE ALL CAPS, NOT BECAUSE I AM YELLING, BUT BECAUSE IT IS AN OLD HABIT FROM MY ARMY DAYS, PLUS IT IS EASIER TO TYPE AND READ.
