Black Bear

Michigan’s bear population is far larger than many residents realize, and the 2025 hunting season revealed just how big and healthy those bears are.

A young black bear spotted with a plastic lid stuck on its neck for two years has finally been rescued by Michigan wildlife officials near Hillman.

He was just looking for a little snack.

You don't see that every day.

Could you sleep knowing that a dangerous animal was lurking around?

That sure doesn't happen very often this far downstate.

Campers, be vigilant - there has been an increase in black bear sightings up north this summer.

The attack happened early on Sunday morning in Grayling.

There aren't many predators that scare a North American Black Bear, but even they know enough to run from an angry housewife.
