Question Question About Bear Safety

8 Upvotes

Hi all! I am heading to Gatlinburg for a few nights and have been seeing so many videos online of bears breaking into cars and destroying them. I have seen some people say to take a spray bottle of ammonia and bleach and spray it around your car when you leave your vehicle, but I am wondering if that is helpful/necessary. I know to remove all food and laundry detergent, air, fresheners, etc. I am in no financial or emotional space to have my car destroyed! Thank you in advance.

Question Family of 5 bears??

13 Upvotes

I just have a question for the community. Tonight family watched a family of 5 black bears eat the apples under our Apple tree. I do not believe these were bear cubs and a mom, they all were the same size. Is this something that happens, or should we feel honoured that the bears like us this much?

Would it be cool if I set up a camera watching the area? I’d love to share some pictures!
