Bears in Nashville and Beyond

Black bears are venturing into Middle Tennessee—spotting them in Nashville and surrounding counties isn’t rare anymore. Driven by spring migration, these young bears are just passing through, unless they’ve stumbled upon easy snacks like garbage, pet food, or bird feeders. Don’t feed or approach them—secure your food sources, take down feeders, and clean your grill. Report sightings via TWRA’s “I Saw A Bear” system to help track their movements and keep everyone safe.
