Transboundry Black Bears
« on: June 18, 2009, 10:04:48 AM »
The Big Bend Gazette has a very interesting story about research being done on the study of black bears in the Mexico/West Texas area.

It's encouraging to see the bear population increasing.

If it doesn't stick you, sting you, or bite you, then it must be a rock.

I just rad the whole article. What great source of information we have here in Mexico, and still very feww people know of this. The hear Maderas El Carmen,but don't seem to realize how important it is for the State of Coahuila the great effort these people are putting to it.

 Thank you East Texan for the link.....and RicardoM too.
When you have taken down the last tree, killed the last animal,polluted the last river...then you will realize you can not live by eating money.
