Oso negro Americano / Ursus Americanus / American Black Bear

Determined this young bear was a sow.
Even though I had a tag, decided to just watch her feed. Also it’s crazy how some photos make this bear look bigger than what it actually is and some photos make an accurate representation of how little the bear is.

Beautiful bear. Good call letting her walk.

Even if she was a boar, I think I would have just marked the location and gave the bear a year to get bigger.

My first thought it is was too small, but I want to try and sex it in the field.

Probably the biggest clue it was a young sow was no balls/penis sheath.
