Bear in the Backyard | Boise News

A chillin’ black bear in a Pocatello backyard got the call from Idaho Fish and Game—no drama, just a hungry teen trying to survive a drought-stricken landscape. With berries and nuts scarce, this young bear likely followed the Portneuf River corridor, ending up too close to civilization. Officials relocated him to wilder terrain, rare for bears in city limits—last seen here was 2018, even wandered into Zoo Idaho. A reminder: wildlife’s just trying to eat, even if it means a detour through your neighborhood. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
