We've had a bear getting into our orchard for almost a month. It especially liked any kind of plum. Anyway I finally got a depridation permit two weeks ago and had a "Wildlife Specialist" (trapper) set up a culvert trap. Nothing happend for a few weeks but we got him last night.
I was really concerned because we had a huge fruit set this year and the apples and pears are loaded. What bears usually do is gobble down the fruit and immediately poop it out while tearing off branches as the eat. It's a real bummer to go out and see that kind of mess in the morning.
I hate to kill wildlife but you have to do what you have to do.
