I saw a black bear while I was bowhunting in the apalachicola national forest in the florida panhandle one time.

I kept hearing a tree shaking but I couldn't see what it was. I crept around until I was about twenty yards away and she was up at the top of a 35-40' pine tree shaking the shite out of it. When I saw her I froze but she turned around looked down and made eye contact with me. As soon as she looked away I started slowly walking backwards until I was out of sight and then got some pep in my step. Didn't have a pistol on me at the time

I killed a coyote last year while hunting deer. however, I have never yet seen a black bear in the woods. i'm fairly certain that in 20 years they will be quiet common as they are protected pretty heavily and really don't have any predators.

I've seen black bear in GA and many, many black bear when visiting the timber fringe area of Saskatchewan. May have dispatched one or two for lurking around our fish camp too...

I see coyotes all the time.

Bears occasionally. They are getting thick in the Northeast and are like 250 lb coons. When they get think like that here no garbage can will be safe.

I meant more along the lines of crossing paths with either while blood trailing a deer or having coyotes get to your deer before you..things like that

Walked up on a pack of coyotes a few years ago in the dark. They all started barking and growling and scattered. Then started howling. I sat with my back against a tree and gun pointed down range and waited for daylight

This was put out the evening before because I needed a few hogs and this is a great spot for hogs, attracted the wrong company.....ate most of it up before he left the scene, interesting at the same time a little nerve racking to watch though.

I have been easing down a 4 wheeler trail during turkey season, and have a coyote run across the trail behind me several times, sweeping for scent to see what I was. A bit eerie, and at that point I figured the turkeys wouldn't mind my flashlight so much
