BACK IN BLACK BEARS

Yesterday, the Odessa American published a story about dry conditions forcing black bears to go on the move, but they’re actually coming to Texas instead of leaving the drought-ridden state. According to the article, the bears are fleeing dry conditions and fires in Mexico, searching for food and water. Plateau wildlife biologist Romey Swanson just returned from a family vacation to West Texas and we'll be posting amazing wildlife photos from his excellent adventure, but, first up, it's a bear! Romey's photo, below. Read the complete Odessa American article here.
