A deer you might expect ..... but a Bear??

Warning to all those pilots- a bear is on the loose and may cause you to abort landing

Warning to all those going to Penatonix’s Thursday night and wander into the woods instead of using the porta-potty (presuming he makes it safely across the runway safely
Little known fact! A black bear can outrun a horse in a short sprint! Black bear season opens next Sunday and there are most likely baiters setting up baits for the opener, causing bears to roam more in search of the goodies.
